Install Instructions

This OS can be installed on your device via the ML Hub/ or using Android Debug Bridge.

New Features

  • Voice Input: support ML system voice commands (w/ wake-word “Hey Lumin”) along with in-app voice commands (w/o wake-word) simultaneously. The active ML system voice commands are selected by the app when an app is launched. ATTN: Voice commands are disabled by default and only support EN-US.
  • Audio Output: we are now applying additional output speaker conditioning to ensure device speakers play back at equal levels, as well as present audio content more faithfully to the listener. A slight decrease in total perceived level may be observed. We will continue to fine-tune this speaker conditioning to deliver the best quality sound at the user’s ears.
  • Spatial Mapping: command-line support has been added for common mapping functionality as well as exporting an on-device map and spatial anchors from one device and importing it on another device. A list of commands and options can be seen via $ adb shell mlmapping
