Interactivity (VR/AR) definition for USD Scenes?

Omniverse General Discussion
1

By default, the USD format does not provide to inscribe interactions (buttons, triggers, etc.), but the new USD schemas for AR (Apple) allow this.
With the ongoing development of CloudXR I wanted to ask if there are new schemas planned? Or, more specifically, how will interaction be defined when using CloudXR?
Thank you!

Hi, yes, we have a runtime for USD that is in progress that will allow you to define behavior, deformers, etc… on top of USD. We call it OmniGraph and you can see some early life of it in the extension manager. Over the next couple of months you will see CloudXR + OmniGraph coming together.

Meanwhile, you can still use Python to provide input to USD scenes.
