List of changes

New feature - Camera Layouts

Camera Layouts lets you replace the background of your camera view in real time. You can choose from three options:

• Blur – Softens the background to keep focus on the subject.
• Custom color – Replace the background with any solid color you pick.
• Media – Use an image or a video file as the background.

This feature replaces the previous Green Screen and Weatherman features. Both are now included under Camera Layouts.

<aside> ❗

The feature requires the Face AR product with Background Segmentation feature enabled. Without Background Segmentation, this feature will not appear or function. Contact Banuba representatives to enable it

In this release we made a few optimizations and simplifications.

~~BanubaPhotoEditor~~ and ~~BanubaVideoEditor~~ classes have been removed. Use the new EditorSdk class instead.
