As part of this update, we also improved the accuracy of detecting documents that are difficult to read because they are captured at extreme angles.
The latest models launched today in all AWS regions where Amazon Textract is available. You will start noticing the decrease in latency and better accuracy of documents captured at extreme angles automatically without any action on your part.
