The 1.1.8 firmware for Lynx R-1 is out.
This minor update includes a set of interesting features:
Feel free to visit our documentation and learn how to update your device.
The full and detailed changelog is here.
This is also the first firmware where we deploy partial OTA updates, meaning if you were already on 1.1.7, you don't need to download the whole firmware but just the patched files!
The SDK and Preview package were also updated, with exciting features like access to the PointCloud data, 6DoF information, etc...
A Vuforia sample is also available on request.
Here is a complete recap of our work in a video format.

Our application store is currently open to developers and ready to serve applications.
We are starting to roll out our solution for app distribution and if you are a developer, you can start to enroll your organization (or yourself if you're self-employed) today.
For now, we only support free apps. We will support paid apps starting January 2024.
Organization and application pages are public but we will keep the main front-endof the store hidden as we test the system with the community.
The store will work on both desktop and Lynx devices to download packages. We completely changed the installation process of .apk files in the Lynx headset to allow .apk to be installed smoothly from our main web browser: Wolvic.
We are excited to collaborate with developers to kickstart the most open ecosystem in AR/VR.

The 1.1.7 firmware for Lynx R-1 is out.
This firmware fixes the battery charging behavior. Now you can charge the headset while it stays off.
The LED will turn completely green when the device is at >90% of charge.
This firmware update also corrects the passthrough latency consistency.
We are working on publishing the Unreal SDK and an update to the Unity Package Preview to access the Point Cloud.

This new website is the first block of our new infrastructure to share resources with you and bring services to Lynx users.
The main goal is to have a space where we can discuss with our users and community at large, to gather feedback.
The Portal also serves documentation, downloads, and soon our API and the application store.
We will roll out more features and downloads every week, the system is built to be massively expandable and very secure. It will serve as the main hub for Lynx, and will replace our e-commerce on the main domain early next year.
November and December are going to be intense for us at Lynx as we roll out the first devices in the wild and in the hands of our Kickstarter backers.
We shared our SDK so if you're a developer, you can technically start developing on Lynx while waiting to test on a device. If some of you are building apps all the way to the .apk, we will gladly try them and even share them on our updates.
