Experimetnal Build 2025.30280 posted

We have an update to experimental ready with lots of bug fixes and improvements.

Read the Release Notes

If you haven’t read our 2025 experimental release announcement please do so first for an introduction to 2025 Experimental.

The POPs examples and samples have been polished and improved. Please re-download them if you previously got them for 2025.30060. Don’t forget to dive into Learning About POPs to get started with the new operator family.

In this build we have also updated the NVIDIA Maxine SDK, it now works on Blackwell GPUs (50-series Geforce for example). NVIDIA’s licensing has changed and as a result you now need to download the models separately. See Release Notes.

ZED Camera also received an SDK update which enables a bunch of new features such as 38-point joint tracking in the ZED CHOP and a new image type called ‘Mask’ which outputs a texture where each pixel gives the ID of tracked bodies.

Please review the Known Issues in the Release Notes. Intel-based Mac users are forewarned, we still have not fixed all the issues running POPs on these systems. If you have a crash, it may require a system reboot.

Besides that there have been a bunch of crash and bug fixes, thank you for all your reports. Please keep them coming in the bugs forum.

(Re-)download today’s POPs Examples folder. It has improvements and fixes. POPs Examples Folder

Discontinue using the previous contents of the folder. It will not work properly with the current 2025.30280 build of Experimental. We will be updating the folder with improvements a few times during the 2025.30280 period.
