Lucid Mobile Update

The Lucid Mobile platform continues to evolve at a rapid pace. Recently several new exciting features have been added, which will be available in the future for those wishing to deploy their keys as mobile Apps.

  • Users now have the ability to save their identification sessions and reload them at a future time.
  • The Lucid App can now open other Lucid based Apps, allowing keys (Apps) to be daisy chained (e.g. as sub keys).
  • This allows users to install keys that they are interested in. The first example of this is the SANBI Keys – See the Keys listing on www.lucidcentral.org for more information on this.
  • The Lucid Mobile App image viewer has been updated to include more features.
    User registration can now be added to your key, along with licence requirements, if required.

Lucid v3.3 Updated

We have updated v3.3 Free Edition to cope with further changes to the Java Runtime Environment (JRE). One important change has been to remove the Applet Player deployment option. This option has become untenable due to continual breaking JRE updates and the current lack of direct support for Java Applets in Google Chrome. This is a major reason why we have moved to a JavaScript Player in v3.6. The v3.3 Builder will still allow the deployment of a key with the deployable Application edition of the v.3.3 Player.

Version v3.6 is now available to purchase.

Lucid v3.6 coming soon

The launch of Lucid v3.6 has been delayed due to a number of recent projects. However, the delay has allowed us to add even more functionality to the new JavaScript edition of the Lucid Player!

We are endeavouring to have the new release finalised and ready late December 2016 or early January 2017.

Anyone who purchased v3.5 from September this year will get the v3.6 upgrade for free. Otherwise the upgrade price for existing users of v3.5 will be $360.00.

The first major key to show off the functionality of the new JavaScript based Player is the Australian Freshwater Molluscs key (http://keys.lucidcentral.org/keys/v3/freshwater_molluscs/).
