Scan Process

The scanning process happens entirely through the TireTreadScanView and should be performed in Landscape mode.

Implementing the `ScannerViewControllerHolder` Interface

In order to set up the scan view and retrieve the scan view controller, your UIViewController subclass should implement the ScannerViewControllerHolder interface.

This interface gives your view controller two properties:

scannerViewController: After the setup call TireTreadScanViewKt.TireTreadScanView method (see below) is successfully made, this property will hold the instance of TireTreadScannerViewController, which handles the scanning process.
dismissViewController: This is a function property that will be called by the SDK when a request has been made to dismiss the scanner. Assign it a block within the lifetime of your ScannerViewControllerHolder that handles this scenario in the appropriate manner.

Here is an example of how to implement the ScannerViewControllerHolder interface:

class YourViewController: UIViewController, ScannerViewControllerHolder {

    // Implement the properties defined by the ScannerViewControllerHolder interface
    var scannerViewController: UIViewController?

    var dismissViewController: (() -> Void)?

    // Rest of your class implementation...
}

Remember to replace YourViewController with the actual name of your view controller.

Make sure that YourViewController runs in Landscape mode.

Setting up the Scan View Controller

Once the SDK has been initialized and the necessary permissions have been granted, you can set up the scan view controller.

private func setupTireTreadScanView() {
    let config = TireTreadScanViewConfig(measurementSystem: .metric, useDefaultUi: true)
    TireTreadScanViewKt.TireTreadScanView(context: self, config: config) { error in
        // Handle initialization error
    }
}

private func addScanViewControllerAsChild() {
    guard let scannerViewController = scannerViewController else {
        // Handle error
        return
    }
    addChild(scannerViewController)
    view.addSubview(scannerViewController.view)
    scannerViewController.didMove(toParent: self)
}

If the callback to TireTreadScanViewKt.TireTreadScanView(context, config) does not produce an error, then the TireTreadScanView becomes accessible to your application as the main view object of scannerViewController.

Handling the SDK’s events

The scanning process is automatically stopped after 10 seconds.

The TireTreadScanViewCallback is the interface through which the TireTreadScanView communicates back to your application. With these callbacks, you can react on changes and implement your own workflow around the scan process. The callbacks available are:

onScanStart: Invoked when the scanning process begins
onScanStop: Invoked when the scanning process ends
onImageUploaded: Invoked after each frame is uploaded
onUploadCompleted: Invoked once all the frames were successfully uploaded for processing
onUploadFailed: Invoked if any issue has occurred during upload
onDistanceChanged: Invoked whenever the distance between the device and the tire changes. (This information serves as a guide to assist your app’s users in scanning correctly.)

Once your TireTreadScanView object is available, add your callback implementation to it. In this example, we will use the same UIViewController as the callback implementation.

Implement the TireTreadScanViewCallback interface, and override the desired methods, e.g.:

// Implement the TireTreadScanViewCallback interface
extension YourViewController: TireTreadScanViewCallback {

    func onUploadCompleted(uuid: String?) {
        // Implement this method
        self.playStopSound()
        if let safeUuid = uuid {
            self.displayLoading(uuid: safeUuid)
        } else {
            self.displayError()
        }
    }

    func onImageUploaded(uuid: String?, uploaded: Int32, total: Int32) {
        print("Native iOS: Image uploaded (\(uploaded)/\(total)) for uuid: \(uuid ?? "unknown")")
    }

    func onUploadFailed(uuid: String?, exception: KotlinException) {
        self.displayError()
    }

    func onScanStart(uuid: String?) {
        self.playStartSound()
        self.progressView.isHidden = false
        self.scanTimer = Timer.scheduledTimer(timeInterval: interval, target: self, selector: #selector(updateProgressView), userInfo: nil, repeats: true)
    }

    func onScanStop(uuid: String?) {
        print("Native iOS: Scan stopped for uuid: \(uuid ?? "unknown")")
    }

    /// Called when the distance has changed.
    ///
    /// - Parameters:
    ///   - uuid: The UUID associated with the distance change.
    ///   - previousStatus: The previous distance status.
    ///   - newStatus: The new distance status.
    ///   - previousDistance: The previous distance value.
    ///   - newDistance: The new distance value.
    ///
    /// Note: The distance values are provided in millimeters if the metric system is selected (`UserDefaultsManager.shared.imperialSystem = false`), and in inches if the imperial system is selected (`UserDefaultsManager.shared.imperialSystem = true`).
    func onDistanceChanged(uuid: String?, previousStatus: DistanceStatus, newStatus: DistanceStatus, previousDistance: Float, newDistance: Float) {
        if Int(newDistance) != Int(previousDistance) {
            let distanceInCentimeters = UserDefaultsManager.shared.imperialSystem ? (newDistance * 2.54) : (newDistance / 10.0)
            startBeeping(distanceInCm: Double(distanceInCentimeters))
            DispatchQueue.main.async { [weak self] in
                self?.updateUI(status: newStatus, distance: Int(UserDefaultsManager.shared.imperialSystem ? newDistance : distanceInCentimeters))
            }
        }
    }
}
