USD Connections Overview#
OpenUSD Connections and Data Exchange, formerly Omniverse Connect, is a collection of importers, exporters, converters, and USD file format plug-ins that enable various 3D applications, products, and file formats to exchange data using the Universal Scene Description (OpenUSD or USD) format. When data is in OpenUSD, you are connected to Omniverse technologies alongside the most popular 3D apps and tools on the market, enabling advanced workflows and superior collaboration that only OpenUSD can provide.
OpenUSD Exchange SDK#
The OpenUSD Exchange SDK accelerates OpenUSD development by helping engineers design and develop their own USD I/O solutions that produce consistent and correct USD assets across diverse 3D ecosystems.
It provides higher-level convenience functions on top of lower-level USD concepts, so developers can quickly adopt OpenUSD best practices when mapping their native data sources to OpenUSD-legible data models.
USD Ecosystem Solutions#
We encourage our customers to utilize the native OpenUSD support integrated into the ISV-developed Applications.
