What's New in Blueye
6.3.0
September 11, 2026
- Create your Blueye Cloud organisation from the app. Signing in without an organisation now asks for a name and a URL slug and creates it on the spot, instead of sending you to a browser to sign in a second time. An invitation waiting to be accepted is still handled in the browser. - Add computer vision support for the Blueye X3 Ultra and X7: object detection and segmentation models running on the drone draw live overlays on the video, single-object tracking follows a target selected by drawing a box or long-pressing a detection, and the models are switched on and off from a new Computer Vision page in the dive menu. - Add laser tracking measurements on the Blueye X3 Ultra and X7 with a scaling laser connected: the sensor bar shows the live distance to target, detected objects are labelled with their real-world size, and the video can be frozen to draw measurement lines whose lengths are corrected for lens distortion. - Add area measurements to the freeze-frame and sonar measuring tools: joining measurement lines into a closed shape highlights and labels its area, and new polygon, circle and rectangle modes draw shapes directly, in metric or imperial units. - Add an area selection mode to the freeze-frame measuring tools: long-press and drag a box around a feature and the app selects the colour-matched region inside it, labelled with its real-world area, width and height. A slider grows or shrinks each selection, and several regions can be selected and adjusted independently. - Resume an interrupted Blunux update download instead of starting over. A download that is canceled, loses its connection or is cut short when the app closes continues from where it stopped the next time it is started. - Add a toggle to the TAK multibeam settings that publishes the onboard multibeam RTSP stream of the Blueye X3 Ultra and X7 instead of a manually entered stream URL. The toggle appears, switched on, once the app has been connected to one of those drones, and only takes effect while one of them, running Blunux 5.2.0 or newer, is connected. - Keep the multibeam sensor fan on the TAK sonar marker while the sonar is switched off, hidden rather than omitted. iTAK only draws the fan for markers that carried it when they were first received, so a sonar marker created while the sonar was off never showed its fan later. Existing sonar markers without a fan must be deleted in iTAK once.
