- Description
- USD is a file format used for 3D models and scenes. It is an open-source format developed by Pixar, and it is designed to be used in combination with their Universal Scene Description (USD) technology. USD files store 3D geometry, materials, lighting, and other scene data, and they can be used to exchange 3D content between different 3D applications and pipelines.
- Based on HEVC (High-Efficiency Video Coding), the HEIF format is an image file container with one or multiple images and is the default image format for Apple Live Photos. It replaced the JPEG format as it's smaller in size and has lossless compression ensuring high-quality photos.
