XrSpace

XrSpace is a cross-reality software platform designed to enable the creation, deployment, and exploration of experiences that blend augmented, virtual, and mixed reality. It provides a common set of tools, data models, and runtime services intended to streamline development across multiple devices and environments, from headsets to mobile displays, while supporting collaborative and persistent content.

The core of XrSpace is a scalable scene model built around an entity-component-system paradigm, with a declarative scripting layer and a runtime that handles rendering, physics, input, and networking. Scenes, avatars, and interactions are represented with open formats to promote interoperability and long-term accessibility.

Platform support is designed to be hardware-agnostic. XrSpace targets major VR headsets, AR glasses, and conventional screens, offering a unified API for rendering, spatial mapping, and user interfaces. It includes tools for asset management, scene persistence, versioning, and cloud-hosted services for real-time collaboration and content delivery.

Development and governance are described as community-oriented. The project typically provides reference implementations, a public specification, and contribution guidelines to encourage external tooling and extensions. Open formats and a modular architecture aim to reduce duplication of effort across XR projects.

Reception among developers highlights the potential to unify XR workflows and accelerate cross-platform content, though critics note challenges in performance optimization and in coordinating between competing standards in the broader XR ecosystem.
