# 1.3.0

This version updates the SelphID biometric engine from `6.10.2` to SelphID `6.17.0`. The main advantage is the use of the **facial flavor** of SelphID, which avoids installing models and libraries related to the liveness check unnecessary for this backend. Other changes that may affect this service include:

* Use of SelphID `flavor:facial`, which reduces the distribution size by not including liveness libraries or models.
* Fixed the issue of calculating the biometric template in cropped images.
* Greater accuracy when extracting biometric templates from low-quality images.
* Facial template extractor with low-resolution images.
* Fixed the problem of extracting the biometric template in documents with multiple faces.
* Fixed the cropping of templateRaw when using tokenized images with `ExtractFacialWithRawTemplate()`.
* The internal minimum IOD (interocular distance) has been reduced from `30px` to `20px`.
* Support for EXIF orientation metadata.
