Possibly by modifying a function in the SDK to allow for an additional property to be passed into the Get Pose function. (Note we have not tested this workaround yet) Move the Magic Leap Unity SDK into your project’s packages directory. Make sure the Magic Leap Unity Package is imported into your project as a folde…
