US Patent 12008717 Artificial reality environment control through an artificial reality environment schema

An artificial reality environment (XRE) schema is defined that supports anel-controlling interactions between various artificial reality actors. The XRE schema includes a set of definitions for an XRE, independent of type of artificial reality device. The definitions in the XRE schema can include standards for both interfaces and data objects. The XRE schema can define XR elements in terms of entities and components of a space, organized according to a hierarchy. Each entity can represent a real or virtual object or space, within the XRE, defined by a name and a collection of one or more components. Each component (as part of an entity) can define aspects and expose information about the entity. The XRE schema can specify structures that that allow actors (e.g., producers, instantiators, and consumers) to define and perform actions in relation to XRE elements.
