WebXR

Definitions

1. A browser API (succeeding WebVR) that provides access to virtual reality and augmented reality devices, handling session management, reference spaces, input sources (controllers, hands), hit testing, and per-frame pose data needed to render immersive XR content in the browser.

   In plain English: A browser standard that lets websites create virtual reality and augmented reality experiences that work directly in a web browser.

   Example: "The museum tour uses WebXR so visitors can experience the 3D walkthrough on a Quest headset without installing anything."
