This kit enables developers to easily integrate beautification features, as well as text and object recognition into their apps. Scan Kit greatly shortens the development time needed for implementing QR code and barcode scanning capabilities into apps. With the Map Kit, developers can easily implement customised maps and add tags, as well as implement services such real-time global road condition reporting and extremely accurate route planning in more than 200 countries/regions.
