Universal Scene Description (USD) is a software library, developed by Pixar Animation Studios, that provides a system for authoring, reading, and streaming time-sampled scene description for interchange between computer graphics applications. It organizes data into hierarchical namespaces of primitives and their properties. This provides a set of schemas upon which common 3-D computer graphics concepts such as geometry, shading, models, and assets can be organized and manipulated.
