Questions about the latest firmware for the original HuskyLens

I am using the original HuskyLens / HuskyLens Pro for a line‑tracking robot project, and I would like to confirm several points regarding the firmware.
1.What is the latest official firmware version for the original HuskyLens?
I understand that version v0.5.3alpha1 is currently the newest release, but I would like to confirm whether this is correct.
2.Are there any plans for future firmware updates for the original HuskyLens series?
I would like to know if development of the v0.5.x line is still ongoing, or if it has reached end‑of‑life.
3.Regarding UART communication:
In firmware v0.5.1, the UART baud‑rate setting above 115200 bps does not work correctly.
Is this a known issue in v0.5.1?
I have confirmed that v0.5.3alpha1 resolves this problem, but I would like official confirmation.
I appreciate your help and look forward to your response.
Best regards,
The Wiki still links v0.5.1b as the stable version, so that's DFRobot's official recommendation. If your project needs baud rates above 115200, v0.5.3alpha1 is your only option — it fixes the bug, but it's alpha for a reason. Test it hard before putting it on a competition robot.
Jason.Miao Thank you for the information. One more question: Do you plan to release a stable firmware update for the original HuskyLens that includes the UART fix? Or is the firmware for the original HuskyLens no longer being updated?
