Alliance for OpenUSD launches new standards working groups for interoperable 3D

I think of the Alliance for OpenUSD as a group making standards for the open industrial and enterprise metaverse. And today they’re announcing two new working groups and a collaborative liaison relationship.

The whole aim is to rally the industry around common technical formats for interoperable digital technologies. OpenUSD, based on a 3D file format pioneered at Pixar dubbed Universal Scene Description (USD), will make it easier for objects like a digital dress be formatted correct at all the ecommerce sites.
