OpenXR is an open-source, royalty-free standard for access to virtual reality and augmented reality platforms and devices.[3] It is developed by a working group managed by the Khronos Group consortium. OpenXR was announced by the Khronos Group on February 27, 2017, during GDC 2017.[4][5][6] A provisional version of the standard was released on March 18, 2019, to enable developers and implementers to provide feedback on it.[3] On July 29, 2019, OpenXR 1.0 was released to the public by Khronos Group at SIGGRAPH 2019.[7]
Reviewers of the 0.90 provisional release considered that the aim of OpenXR was to "Solve AR/VR Fragmentation".[8]
