Hosts Release 2.0.0 - What's New

Introducing a major update of the Amazon Sumerian Hosts (Hosts) library! Hosts v2 offers new functionality, ease-of-use improvements, and new demo applications to make learning the Hosts API easier than ever.

  • New Amazon Lex support allows your users to interact with Hosts using their voice or typed text input. Compatible with Amazon Lex v1 chatbots.
  • Instantiating host characters in Babylon.js has been significantly streamlined. You can now create a fully functioning host character with just 6 lines of code.
  • New Hosts demos for Babylon.js present each Hosts feature in a streamlined way that makes them easy to learn from and perfect for use as the starting point for your own applications. Demos include:
    • Hello World Demo
    • Gestures Demo
    • Chatbot Demo
    • Custom Character Demo
  • To support modern web development practices, the Hosts API can now be directly imported into your codebase as an ESM-style Javascript module (new). It can also still be linked into your web app using an HTML <script> tag and accessed using the global variable, HOST (legacy).
  • Support for both left-handed (new) and right-handed coordinate systems in Babylon.js.
  • Added Typescript definitions for an improved developer experience when using Hosts in Typescript projects.
  • New repository structure offering cleaner separation of renderer-specific code.
  • Several bug fixes and quality of life improvements.
