What shipped, release by release
Every SDK version and platform milestone, honestly logged. Install the latest with pip install -U spatialai · PyPI
v0.5.0
August 2026
Intel RealSense adapter — bring your own depth camera
Added
Camera("realsense")— any Intel RealSense (D4xx/L5xx) now drives the full SpatialAI stack: models, filters, and the streaming API run on real depth frames.pip install "spatialai[realsense]"- Field of view read from stream intrinsics at runtime, keeping person/pet size classification physically correct on any camera
spatialai dumpCLI (0.4.1) — raw UART capture with frame-marker/checksum analysis for Spatial Home bring-up
v0.4.0
August 2026
Spatial Vision toolkit: RAW12 decode + vendor filter chain
Added
spatialai.opn6001— Spatial Vision (OPN6001/OPN6002) toolkit: MIPI RAW12 frame decode (720×320 raw → 240×320 depth/IR/status/BK planes, 0.25 mm LSB), with both vendor decode variants selectable pending test-pattern validation- Vendor-recommended post-processing chain: IR filter, status-based confidence filter with over-exposure dilation, R=2 median filter
- 32-bit SPI transaction builders (burst, dummy-word rules) and the documented boot/ready register sequence
- 9 new tests including encode/decode round-trips (32 total)
Notes
- Full V4L2 capture backend needs a platform kernel driver (vendor RK3566 reference available) — planned once modules are on the bench
v0.3.0
August 2026
Real hardware backends, built from the official protocol docs
Added
- Spatial Home (DMOS5030A/5031A) UART backend — full Dragonfly protocol v1.4.4: framing, ISP init, ROI/binning, stream control, depth-frame parsing.
Camera("spatial-home", port="/dev/ttyUSB0") - Spatial Mini (DM0301) native I²C driver at address 0x41 — continuous ranging, interrupt-driven data-ready, millimeter results with confidence
pip install "spatialai[hardware]"extra (smbus2 + pyserial); per-device extras remain- 10 new protocol-level tests (23 total): golden-byte command encoding, split/corrupt frame parsing, fake-bus register sequences
Fixed
- DM0301 backend no longer assumes VL53L4CD protocol compatibility — the datasheet confirms pin-compatibility only (different I²C address and register map)
Hardware
August 2026
Spatial Hub (VL-HUB-01) goes on sale
Shipped
- Fanless edge AI box — octa-core Arm CPU + NPU (up to 43.2 TOPS INT4), ingests up to 32 × 1080p30 camera streams
- Runs SpatialAI SDK v0.2 and both shipping models out of the box; NPU-accelerated marketplace models will arrive via OTA
- $599, available in the store now — card, Apple Pay & Google Pay
v0.2.0
August 2026
Models go live: load_model() ships with two free models
Added
cam.load_model(name)— loaded models run on every stream frame (frame.models) and on demand viacam.infer()presence-core— debounced presence & approach detection with adaptive background tracking; works on every device including 1D sensorsoccupancy-home-v1— room occupancy from depth CV: background estimation, depth-aware connected components (splits overlapping people), physical-height person/pet classification. 90% agreement with simulator ground truth- Simulator now renders physically-scaled synthetic depth frames (FOV-correct person size), so depth models are testable without hardware
- Announced-but-unshipped models raise
ModelNotAvailableYetwith waitlist instructions
Changed
- Model Marketplace page now shows per-model status badges — shipping models are free and marked "Available now"
- Test suite grew to 13 tests
v0.1.0
August 2026
First public release — the SDK becomes real
Added
pip install spatialai— package registered and published on PyPICamera/SensorAPI:detect_people(),stream(),distance_m(), context-manager support- Realistic simulator for all four products — the five-line quickstart runs on any machine with no hardware
- Real I²C backend for Spatial Mini (DM0301, VL53L4CD-compatible) via
pip install "spatialai[dm0301]"on Raspberry Pi and Linux SBCs - CLI:
