NFC Passport Reader

Scan passport and retrieve information using NFC technologies.

BiometridStandard.getInstance().startNfc(processCallback, nfcCustomization, scannerCustomization);a

ProcessCallback processCallback	Callback where result information is received.
NFCustomization? nfcCustomization	NFC activity text and color configurations
CaptureOptions? scannerCustomization	MRZ Code reader configurations

The standard method for reading passport information involves an MRZ code reader. This step is essential for securely connecting to the passport via NFC.

In case the MRZ data required was already obtained, the MRZ reading step mentioned above can be skipped when using the following method:

BiometridStandard.getInstance().startNfc(processCallback, documentMrz, scannerCustomization);a

ProcessCallback processCallback	Callback where result information is received.
MrzData documentMrz	Required document data to allow NFC scan.
NFCustomization? nfcCustomization	NFC activity text and color configurations

Implementation Example

class ExampleActivity extends AppCompatActivity implements InitializationCallback{
    String TAG = getClass().getSimpleName();
    String BIOMETRID_API_SERVER_URL = "your server URL";
    String BIOMETRID_APP = "your app";
    String BIOMETRID_CREDENTIAL = "your credential";
    
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(@Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        
        BiometridStandard.getInstance().init(
                BIOMETRID_API_SERVER_URL ,
                BIOMETRID_APP,
                BIOMETRID_ONBIOMETRID_CREDENTIAL,
                Language.English,    
                this);
    }
    
    @Override
    public void initializationCallback(boolean status, @Nullable Errors errors) {
        if(status) startNfc();
    }
    
    public void startNfc() {
        BiometridStandard.getInstance().startNfc(
            processCallback,
            new NFCustomization(),
            new CaptureOptions()
        );
    } 
    
    public void startNfcWithoutMRZReader() {
        BiometridStandard.getInstance().startNfc(
            processCallback,
            new MrzData("document_number","birth_date","expiry_date"),
            new NFCustomization()
        );
    } 
    
    private ProcessCallback processCalback = new ProcessCallback() {
        @Override
        public void nfcCallback(@Nullable NFCData document, @Nullable Errors errors) {
            if (errors != null) {
                Log.e(TAG, "nfcCallback -> error: " + errors.getMessage());
            } else {
                Log.d(TAG, "nfcCallback -> passport information: " + document.toString());
            }
    };
}
