USDZ is a 3D file format that has been developed by Apple and Pixar to enable easy sharing of 3D assets across different platforms. It is a zipped archive that contains a variety of files, including textures, materials, animations, and other data. It is optimized for use on iOS devices, and can be used in augmented reality applications.
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.
