• [BREAKING] Updates to sensor_info include:
  • new fields added: build_date, image_rev, prod_pn, status, cal (representing
    the value stored in the calibration_status metadata JSON key), config (representing the
    value of the sensor_config metadata JSON key)
  • the original JSON string is accessible via the original_string() method
  • The updated_metadata_string() now returns a JSON string reflecting any modifications to
    sensor_info
  • to_string is now marked as deprecated
• [BREAKING] The RANGE field defined in parsing.cpp, for the low data rate profile, is now 32 bits
  wide (originally 16 bits).
  • Please note this fixes a SDK bug. The underlying UDP format is unchanged.
• [BREAKING] The NEAR_IR field defined in parsing.cpp, for the low data rate profile, is now 16
