OusterSDK + Ouster CLI Release 0.13.1

Latest 20241023 / Python Ouster SDK v0.13.1

Important: as of 0.13.0, the SDK is no longer compatible with firmware versions older than 2.1.0.

• Add support for directly using IPv6 addresses for sensors in the CLI and in sensor clients.
• Typing '?' now displays the visualizer keyboard shortcuts in the visualizer window.
• Removed the async_client_example.cpp example.
• Un-deprecated ScanBatcher::ScanBatcher(size_t, const packet_format&) to remove a warning. (But please use ScanBatcher::ScanBatcher(const sensor_info&) instead.)
• [BREAKING] Removed the input_row_major parameter from the dewarp function. (dewarp now infers the array type.)
• [BREAKING] Renamed DEFAULT_HTTP_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_SECONDS to LONG_HTTP_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_SECONDS.
• [BREAKING] Changed the default value of LidarScanVizAccumulatorsConfig.accum_min_dist_num from 1 to 0.
• [BUGFIX] Fixed a visualizer glitch causing drawables not to render if added after a call to PointViz::update() but before PointViz::run() or PointViz::run_once().
• [BUGFIX] Fixed a visualizer crash when using HIGHLIGHT_SECOND mode with single-return datasets.
• [BUGFIX] Fixed an issue with the 2d images not updating when cycled during pause.
• [BUGFIX] Fixed a bug that the first scan pose it not identity when using slice slam command on a slam output osf file
• [BUGFIX] Re-introduce the RAW field option

Known Issues

• Using an unbounded slice (e.g. with slice 100: during visualization can cause the source to loop back to the beginning (outside of the slice) when the source is a pcap file or an OSF saved with an earlier version of the SDK.
• A race condition in PointViz event handers occasionally causes a crash or unexpected results.
