Engines & SDKs
OpenXR
OpenXR is the royalty-free Khronos standard that lets a single XR application target multiple runtimes — Meta Horizon OS, SteamVR, visionOS, Android XR — through a unified API.
Analytics SDKs that hook the OpenXR layer can capture engine-agnostic telemetry. Gossip Analytics SDKs use OpenXR-compatible primitives so the same instrumentation works across headsets without per-platform forks.
OpenXR is now the de facto integration point for enterprise XR. Runtimes on Windows PC, standalone Android-based headsets, visionOS and browser-based WebXR all expose the same core primitives (pose, input, view configuration), which is what makes cross-platform analytics practical instead of a maintenance burden.
Why it matters
OpenXR is the reason a VR training vendor can ship the same build across Quest, Pico and PCVR without maintaining three analytics stacks. Choosing an analytics SDK that hooks OpenXR (rather than a proprietary layer) is what protects the studio from the next runtime migration.
Example
A VR training studio starts on Quest 2 and later adds a Pico 4 Enterprise pilot for a European customer. Because their analytics SDK is OpenXR-based, no per-device work is needed — the same telemetry flows into the same dashboard and the same cohort comparisons continue to work.
