Release 2.5.2 is a release for the Gen3 robot only. The Gen3 lite robot still uses the previous 2.3.2 SWU.

It is important to note that:

  • The Gen3 2.5.2 SWU file cannot be uploaded on a Gen3 lite
  • This release package uses the API 2.6.0. It can be used with the Gen3 lite robot, but all API calls since KortexAPI2.3.0 require a more recent SWU to work, which are only available for the Gen3 robot.
  • The released features only apply to Gen3 robots, not for Gen3 lite
