    • Normal maps can now be retrieved.
    • Depth and normal can now be retrieved for the left and right eye.

    Positional Tracking

    • Added getEulerAngles() to retrieve camera rotations in degrees or radians.

    Spatial Mapping

    • Improved performance of Spatial mapping.
    • Introduction of Chunks to retrieve single parts of the mesh and reduce memory usage.
    • Visibility and Surrounding lists can be used to retrieve local chunk lists.

    SDK

    • Removed OpenCV dependency.
    • Introduced new samples for SVO recording, playback and export.
    • Updated all tutorials and samples on GitHub. They are now easier to use and better documented.

    Unity

    • Added Vive tracker support.
    • Added Oculus Rift and Oculus Touch support in Green Screen MR sample (through SteamVR only).
    • Added Lighting script to allow for light interactions between the real and virtual world in Mixed-reality and Green Screen samples.
    • Added Garbage Matte script to extend the virtual world beyond green screen boundaries in the Green Screen MR sample.
    • Added a semi-automated Calibration application to help users align the real and virtual world in the Green Screen MR sample.
