I am trying to run the examples for pixel sensor in unity editor and it always crashes, unless I build .apk, is there a proper way to setup my unity to work with magic leap camera in the editor, I tried the remote rendering approach and it crashes.

We do not support access to the MLCamera or Pixel Sensor API in the Editor or during remote rendering. However, if you need to test your application in the Editor, you can use Unity's WebCamTexture API to access the computer's camera feed while running the app in the Editor.
