Thanks for this question. However, I do not think this is directly related to Omniverse.

I did honestly put this exact question into chatgpt and it did produce some pretty great answers. But we cannot directly support or guarantee this response.

To convert GLTF files to USDZ using the OpenUSD Python library (also known as USD or Universal Scene Description by Pixar), you can follow these steps. The process requires using the USD library’s Usd module to read, edit, and write the file formats.

Since GLTF isn’t directly supported by OpenUSD, you’ll need an intermediate step to first convert GLTF to USD, then package it into USDZ.

Prerequisites

  1. Install the USD Python Bindings:
  • Download and install USD from Pixar’s repository or use a Python package like usd-core if available.
  1. Install GLTF-to-USD Converter:
  • Pixar USD doesn’t directly support GLTF. You can use a tool like gltf2usd or usd-core with built-in GLTF support.
  1. Install Additional Dependencies:
  • Make sure you have numpy and pygltflib installed for GLTF parsing if required by the converter.
