Udcap Driver v0.1.6.0 Update Log

Software Version: v0.1.6.0 Built-in Algorithm Version: V1.4.8b Release Date: July 25, 2025


1. Hand Tracking Optimization

  • Algorithm Update: Improved hand tracking algorithms.

  • New Feature: Added one-click [Export Calibration Data] button on the hand tracking page.

  • New Feature: Added display of Serial Number (SN) to facilitate device identification and management.


2. Feature Enhancements & Fixes

  • Button Logic Fix: Added feature to disable the index trigger when A+B buttons are pressed simultaneously, preventing accidental screenshots and allowing the SteamVR system menu to be triggered normally.

  • Hand Tremor Fix: Reduced issues with abnormal finger shaking or twitching during hand tracking.

  • Vibration Feedback Page: Added Help Center external link for quick access to online documentation.


3. Bug Fixes

  • Fixed occasional software crashes during overwrite installation.

  • Fixed issue where the main window would not reappear when minimized and then clicked from the menu bar.

  • Fixed issue where minimizing the main window would also minimize the Settings window unintentionally.

  • Fixed bug where the Minimize and Close buttons in the top-right corner of the software remained clickable during firmware download/install pop-ups.


4. Other Key Adjustments

Removal of Default Administrator Permission:

  • Note:

    • If UDCAP is installed on Drive C, it will still require administrator privileges by default.

    • If installed on a non-C drive, administrator privileges are no longer enforced.

Regarding Admin Privileges & Vibration Feedback:

  • The Vibration Feedback page now includes a link to the Help Center for troubleshooting.

  • To ensure the vibration feedback feature works properly, UDCAP and Steam must be launched with the same privilege level.

    • For example:

      • If UDCAP is installed on Drive C and is forced to run as administrator, then Steam must also be launched as administrator.

      • Conversely, if Steam is not launched with admin privileges, UDCAP should also run without them.

  • Important: If launching Steam/SteamVR through a third-party streaming tool, make sure the privilege levels match—UDCAP should follow the same level as those applications.


Additional Notes:

  • If your Udcap Driver software is not installed on Drive C, it will no longer default to launching with administrator privileges.

  • Overwrite installations do not support changing the installation path. If you wish to change it, please uninstall and reinstall the software.

  • The UDCAP VR Gloves User Manual has been updated. Please refer to the "Vibration Feedback Issues and Solutions" section for details.

  • Known Bug: After unplugging and replugging the right-hand signal receiver, it defaults to channel 0. To resolve this, manually reset the right-hand channel to 0. A permanent fix will be included in the next firmware update for the gloves/receivers.

Software Installation

After the software installation is complete, the installation option for the USB signal receiver will automatically pop up:

  • If you are using the UDCAP driver for the first time, installation is required.

  • If it has already been installed, simply exit by clicking the top-right corner. Reinstalling will prompt a failure message, but it will not affect usage.
