Scanning a generic document from an image

If you want to perform detection on a single still image. You can use SBSDKGenericDocumentRecognizer's recognizeDocument(on:) method, which takes an image as input, performs detection on the image, and returns the result.

Example for detecting Generic Document on the Image

Swift

import Foundation
import ScanbotSDK

func detectGenericDocumentOnImage() {
    
    // Image containing generic document.
    guard let image = UIImage(named: "genericDocumentImage") else { return }
    
    // Types of generic documents you want to detect.
    let typesToDetect = SBSDKGenericDocumentRootType.allDocumentTypes
    
    // Creates an instance of `SBSDKGenericDocumentRecognizer`.
    let detector = SBSDKGenericDocumentRecognizer(acceptedDocumentTypes: typesToDetect)
    
    // Returns the result after running detector on the image.
    let result = detector.recognize(on: image)
}

Objective-C

#import "GenericDocumentDetectionOnImage.h"
@import ScanbotSDK;

@implementation GenericDocumentDetectionOnImage

- (void) detectGenericDocumentOnImage {
    
    // Image containing generic document.
    UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"genericDocumentImage"];
    
    // Types of generic documents you want to detect.
    NSArray<SBSDKGenericDocumentRootType *> *typesToDetect = [SBSDKGenericDocumentRootType allDocumentTypes];
    
    // Creates an instance of `SBSDKGenericDocumentRecognizer`.
    SBSDKGenericDocumentRecognizer *detector = [[SBSDKGenericDocumentRecognizer alloc] initWithAcceptedDocumentTypes:typesToDetect];
    
    // Returns the result after running detector on the image.
    SBSDKGenericDocumentRecognitionResult *result = [detector recognizeDocumentOnImage:image];
}
