USD (Universal Scene Description) is an open 3D standard, now developed by the Alliance for OpenUSD. USDZ is its packaged form for AR on Apple devices. Vuframe® imports USDZ, USDC and USDA and exports your 3D models as USDZ.

Use USD and USDZ with Vuframe

1. To bring a model in: deliver the .usdz, .usdc or .usda file like any other 3D format.
2. To take a model out: ask for the USDZ export of your 3D model.
3. Use the USDZ in the target tool, for example Apple Vision Pro, Keynote or NVIDIA Omniverse.

Good to know: On iPhone and iPad, the Vuframe viewer makes the USDZ for WebAR for you; you do not need to export it for AR. Specification: OpenUSD.
