With the announcement of the HTC Vive adding the front facing camera, and seemingly full access to it in their SDK, can we hope to see the Vuforia SDK allowing us to utalise the front camera to enable mixed reality applications? Especially as both products offer Unity 3D based SDKs.

Bumping because I'd also like to know the answer to this question. There is enourmous potential here if Vuforia and Vive can easily integrate with one another.

I'm still confused about this
I'm still confused about this. How is it that Vuforia can work in the Unity Editor (play mode) but we cannot do a build for Windows and use the webcam? Now that the Vive pro has stereo cameras this is becoming even more desirable as there's no good method for AR in the Vive.
