What's Changed

This version of Ubiq-Genie introduces a significant overhaul to the codebase, focusing on transitioning to the latest Ubiq version, migrating to TypeScript, and improving the repository's structure and functionality. While much has changed in Ubiq-Genie, its proposed server-client structure utilizing child processes is still the same. The key changes include the following.

Major Changes

Upgrade to TypeScript ESM

  • Migrated all code to TypeScript, in line with the latest Ubiq server codebase.

Ubiq Version Upgrade

  • Upgraded to Ubiq version v1.0.0-pre.7, enabling several new features:
    • Improved WebRTC functionality including video streaming
    • WebXR deployment
    • New avatar options such as ReadyPlayerMe
    • Integration of Unity's XR Interaction Toolkit
    • For a full list of new features, check out Ubiq's release page.

Other Changes

  • New CLI Tool: Added a new CLI tool for starting apps with interactive configuration on the first run.
  • MediaReceiver Component: Introduced the MediaReceiver component to receive audio and video over peer-to-peer connections, replacing the workaround of sending raw audio from each client in the original Ubiq-Genie release and enabling capturing video frames for new vision-based applications.
  • Improved Transcription Sample App: Enhanced the transcription sample app to utilize the MediaReceiver component and added functionality to save per-peer audio to .wav files.
  • Unity XR Interaction Toolkit Integration: Upgraded the Unity side of each sample app to use Unity's XR Interaction Toolkit.

Repository and Codebase Improvements

  • Environment Variable Handling: Improved the handling of environment variables for better configuration management.
  • Server Logging: Enhanced server logging for better monitoring and debugging.
  • Repository Reorganization: Reorganized the repository structure for easier development and maintenance.
  • Documentation Updates: Updated documentation to reflect the changes and upgrades.
