0.8.0 - Infrastructure investments and more transform improvements - 2023-07-27

Rerun is an easy-to-use visualization toolbox for computer vision and robotics.

• Python: pip install rerun-sdk
• Rust: cargo add rerun and cargo install rerun-cli
• Online demo: https://demo.rerun.io/version/0.8.0/

Overview & Highlights

• log_pinhole is now easier to use in simple cases and supports non-RDF camera coordinates. #2614
  • You only need to set focal length and optional principal point instead of setting the full 3x3 matrix.
  • There is also a new argument: camera_xyz for setting the coordinate system. The default is RDF (the old default). This affects the visible camera frustum, how rays are projected when hovering a 2D image, and how depth clouds are projected.
• The visualizer can now show coordinate arrows for all affine transforms within the view. #2577
• Linestrips and oriented bounding boxes can now be logged via batch APIs in python.
  • See: log_linestrips_2d, log_linestrips_3d, #2822 and log_obbs #2823
• Rust users that build their own Viewer applications can now add fully custom Space Views. Find more information here.
• New optional flush_timeout specifies how long Rerun will wait if a TCP stream is disconnected during a flush. #2821
  • In Rust, RecordingStream::connect now requires flush_timeout specified as an Option<Duration>.
    • To keep default behavior, this can be specified using the rerun::default_flush_time() helper.
  • In Python flush_init_sec is now an optional argument to rr.connect()
• In Rust, the RecordingStream now offers a stateful time API, similar to the Python APIs. #2506
  • You can now call set_time_sequence, set_time_seconds, and set_time_nanos directly on the RecordingStream, which will set the time for all subsequent logs using that stream.
  • This can be used as an alternative to the the previous MsgSender::with_time APIs.
• The Rerun SDK now defaults to 8ms long microbatches instead of 50ms. This makes the default behavior more suitable for use-cases like real-time video feeds. #2220
  • Check out the microbatching docs for more information on fine-tuning the micro-batching behavior.
• The web viewer now incremental loads .rrd files when streaming over HTTP. #2412

Ongoing Refactors

• There have been a number of significant internal changes going on during this release with little visible impact. This work will land across future releases, but is highlighted here since much of it is visible through the changelog.
  • The layout of the Viewer is now controlled by a Blueprint datastore. In the future this will allow for direct API control of the layout and configuration of the Viewer. A very early prototype of this functionality is available via the rerun.experimental module in Python.
  • An entirely new code-generation framework has been brought online for Rust, Python and C++. This will eventually enable new object-centric APIs with a more scalable, consistent, and ergonomic experience.
  • Bringup of C++ support is now underway and will eventually become our third officially supported SDK language.

Known Regressions

• Due to the Blueprint storage migration, blueprint persistence on web is currently broken. Will be resolved in: #2579

0.5.0 - Jupyter MVP, GPU-based picking & colormapping, new datastore! - 2023-04-20

Overview & Highlights

This new release adds MVP support for embedding Rerun in Jupyter notebooks, and brings significant performance improvements across all layers of the stack.

• Rerun can now be embedded in Jupyter notebooks
  • Tested with Jupyter Notebook Classic, Jupyter Lab, VSCode & Google Colab; checkout our How-to guide
  • Try it out live on Google Colab
• All colormapping tasks are now done directly on the GPU
  • This yields very significant performance improvements for colormapping heavy workload (e.g. segmentation)
  • Try it out in our new segment_anything example that shows off the latest models from Meta AI
• GPU picking & hovering now works with all of our primitives, including meshes & depth clouds
  • This fixes all the shortcomings of the previous CPU-based system
  • Rerun's automatic backprojection of depth textures ("depth clouds") is now feature complete
  • Try it out in our updated nyud example
• Our datastore has been completely revamped to more closely match our latest data model
  • This yields very significant performance improvements for workloads with many events
  • Checkout this post for a detailed walkthrough of the changes

0.3.1 - Remove potentially sensitive analytics - 2023-03-13

Remove potentially sensitive analytics, including path to rerun source code on panics, and rerun branch name when building from source #1563

0.3.0 - 2023-03-07

Overview & Highlights

After a successful launch a couple of weeks ago, we're back with our second release! With a few exceptions this release focuses on internal refactors & improving our processes. However, we think you'll enjoy these goodies that made it in nonetheless!

23-03-02_18.44.38.patched.mp4

You can now generate point clouds directly from depth textures and choose a wide variety of color maps. Check out this video on how to use it. This is a lot faster and more convenient than doing so manually in your own code Some caveats: Picking is not yet working and visible history may behave differently (related to #723)

Other highlights:

• Viewer
  • Improved formatting of date-times in plots #1356
  • Labels for 3D objects have now a color can now be selected & hovered #1438
  • Scale factor is saved across sessions and more persistent between screens #1448
  • Showing tensors in the viewer is now faster
• SDK
  • Python packages now work with Ubuntu-20.04 #1334
  • u8 segmentation stay u8 now (they converted to u16 before) #1376
  • 2D Line strips can now be logged directly #1430
  • Add a strict mode to the Python SDK where misuses of the API result in exceptions being raised.#1477
  • Fix disabling Python API through init not working #1517
• General
  • We build now with fewer build dependencies (there is however still more work to do!). Notably, we previously used a version of the time crate which had a security issue (CVE-2020-26235), thanks @mpizenberg for helping out!
  • Print more information & troubleshooting info on crash

Meanwhile, we did a bunch of improvements to our manual. If you had trouble running Rerun so far, check our updated troubleshooting page (and as always, please open an issue if something doesn't work).

⚠️ BREAKING: old .rrd files no longer load ⚠️
