Editor

• Introduced new import settings that improves the AR experience. Most notably MSAA x4 and Linear color space are now enabled by default when importing the package.
• Updated camera saturation and contrast settings in ZED_Rig_Stereo prefab to improve stereo pass-through in HTC Vive. This compensates the Vive's display brightness and makes real-world images more realistic.
• The camera can now be reconnected at runtime if disconnected.
• Added runtime configuration of ZEDManager parameters.
• Moved scanned meshes, SVOs, greenscreen configuration files and .area files to /Assets/ folder by default rather than in the root project folder. This makes them accessible in the Project tab of Unity.

Helpers

• Introduced multiple HitTest support functions to simplify collisions between real and virtual objects when no spatial mapping is involved (beta).
• Introduced ZEDPlaneDetectionManager.cs script to detect horizontal and vertical planes in a scene. ZEDPlaneDetectionManager inherits from MonoBehavior and must be used to have access to plane detection in Unity Scene.
• Introduced DetectPlaneAtHit() function to get the plane detected at a user-specified screen position.
• Introduced DetectFloorPlane() function to get the floor plane in the image.
• Introduced ZEDPlaneGameObject.cs to store the plane information such as its position, rotation, boundaries, etc. It also creates a GameObject representation of the plane that supports collisions and rendering.
• Introduced ZEDPlaneRenderer.cs script to display the planes detected in a scene by ZEDPlaneDetectionManager.
• Renamed getDepthAt*() and getDistanceAt*() support functions to getForwardDistanceAt*() and getEuclideanDistanceAt*() for a better understanding.

• Fixed bug with normals transformation to world frame that could lead to unstable object placement results.
• Fixed incorrect report of bandwidth issue when using 1080p and 2K resolutions.
• Fixed bug with the depth occlusion option in ZEDManager that could only be changed at runtime and applied to the left eye in stereo mode.
• Fixed the camera stream not properly closing if ZEDManager was disabled or destroyed when stopping a scene. This would result in problems reconnecting to the camera unless the device is unplugged and reconnected.
• Removed the rendering planes of ZED_Rig_Stereo prefab from the scene view when it is not played.
• Fixed bug causing the loading screen to be heavily pixelated in stereo mode.
• Fixed bug that would make error messages flash during camera loading.
• Fixed alerts about missing motion sensor during camera loading.
• Updated broken prefab references in Spatial Mapping sample and prefabs.
• Updated error message when a scene is started without the ZED SDK installed.
• Removed missing SDK window popup when play/pause is pressed. This window now only shows up when Unity is started.
• Fixed broken pause button in ZEDSVOManager.
• Specifying an invalid .area file for spatial memory no longer causes tracking to be disabled. The invalid file is now ignored.
• Fixed directional light on Object Placement scene.

Examples

• Updated lighting, animations and navigation of ZomBunny prefab to make it appear more realistic.
• PlaceOnScreen.cs (Object Placement) now instantiates new objects on click rather than moving the pre-existing object.

Compatibility

• Updated Oculus Package detection ("OVR" is now "Oculus") in ZEDOculusControllerManager.cs.
