Questions about Cosmos Elite's camera

[nkyng]

Hello.

I found a description of Cosmos Elite on "Improvements to VIVE Hand Tracking SDK for VR developers" in Developer Blog.

Is the camera function already supported?

If so, it would be helpful to know how to use it.

(I use an early Vive set with a Cosmos Elite HMD.)

Camera function should be disabled on Cosmos Elite.
Hand tracking SDK currently only supported on the following VR HMDs: Vive, VIVE Pro, Vive Pro Eye, VIVE Cosmos, VIVE Cosmos XR, VIVE Focus Plus, VIVE Focus and Valve Index.

Thank you for your reply.

Should be disabled?
Isn't there a chance the camera will be available in the future?

If there is no possibility of making it available, it would be helpful to let us know.
I think many people want to refer to it when buying related equipment.

I'd like a straight answer too. Feels like every time I ask about camera support being added later, staff always reply with something cryptic or essentially just give a 'maybe'.

A straight 'yes' or 'no' would be appreciated, especially when paying over £500 for the Elite HMD on its own. @C.T.
