TinyUSDZ is in v0.8.0 release candidate. Core loading feature(both USDA and USDC) is now working and production-grade(And no seg fault for corrupted USDA/USDC/USDZ input).
v0.8.0 is Flattened scene only(i.e, USDA/USDC generated by using pxrUSD's usdcat --flatten
or USDZ scene).
Composition features are work-in-progress(experimental Composition feature support in v0.8.0. Better composition feature in next major release v0.9.0(Q4/2023 expected) planned)
Remaining tasks for v0.8.0 release are writing examples, demos and utility functions(Tydra. Especially access to Material/Shader attributes).
- USDZ/USDC(Crate) parser
- USDC Crate version v0.8.0(most commonly used version as of 2022 Nov) or higher is supported.
- USDZ/USDC(Crate) writer (Work-in-progress)
- USDA parser(Hand-written from a scratch. No Bison/Flex dependency!)
- USDA writer
- Support basic Primitives(Xform, Mesh, BasisCurves, etc.), basic Lights and Shaders(UsdPreviewSurface, UsdUVTexture, UsdPrimvarReader)
- Experimental support of some Composition features syoyo#25
- subLayers
- references
- payload
- inherits
- variants
- specializes
Please see doc/status.md for more details
- Basic C API(
c-tinyusd
) for language bindings- examples/c_api_example

- USD <-> glTF converter example
- There is an independent work of USD to glTF binary GLB converter: https://github.com/fynv/usd2glb
- Web demo with Three.js?
- Three.js started to support USDZ with Ascii format, but no USDC support yet: mrdoob/three.js#14219
We've opened Github Discussions page! https://github.com/syoyo/tinyusdz/discussions
TinyUSDZ has first priority of considering security and stability.
USDZ(USDC) is a binary format. To avoid out-of-bounds access, out-of-memory, and other security issues when loading malcious USDZ(e.g. USDZ file from unknown origin), TinyUSDZ has a memory budget feature to avoid out-of-memory issue.
To limit a memory usage when loading USDZ file, Please set a value max_memory_limit_in_mb
in USDLoadOptions.
TinyUSDZ source codes(and some external third party codes) are also checked by Address Sanitizer, CodeQL and Fuzzer.
See tests/fuzzer . For building fuzzer tests, you'll need Meson and Ninja.
If you need to deal with arbitrary USD files from unknown origin(e.g. from internet, NFT storage. Whose may contain malcious data), it is recommended to use TinyUSDZ in sandboxed environment(RunC, FlatPak, WASI(WASM)). Run in WASI is recommended at the moment.
TinyUSDZ does not use C++ exceptions and can be built without threads. TinyUSDZ supports WASM and WASI build. So TinyUSDZ should runs well on various Web platform(WebAssembly. No SharedArrayBuffer, Atomics and WebAssembly SIMD(which is not yet available on iOS Safari) required) and sandboxed environment(WASI. Users who need to read various USD file which possibly could contain malcious data from Internet, IPFS or blockchain storage).
See sandbox/wasi/ for Building TinyUSDZ with WASI toolchain.
USD itself is a generic container of 3D scene data.
Tydra is an interface to Renderers/Viewers and other DCCs. Tydra may be something like Tiny version of pxrUSD Hydra, but its API is completely different. See src/tydra/README.md for the background.
- Image color space
- sRGB
- Linear
- Rec.709
- Partial support of OCIO(OpenColor IO) through TinyColorIO https://github.com/syoyo/tinycolorio . Currently SPI3DLut only.
- More details are T.B.W.
TinyUSDZ does not support Reality Composer file format(.reality
) since it uses proprietary file format and we cannot understand it(so no conversion support from/to Reality also).
TinyUSDZ focuses on loading/writing USDA/USDC/USDZ functionalities.
Example viewer is just for demo purpose.
syoyo
does not provide commercial support as an individual.
If you need commercial support, eco-system development(e.g. plug-ins, DCC tools on top of TinyUSDZ) or production-grade USDZ model viewer(e.g. embed TinyUSDZ to your AR app, 3D NFT Android mobile viewer capable of displaying (encrypted) USDZ model), please contact Light Transport Entertainment, Inc. : https://goo.gl/forms/1p6uGcOKWGpXPHkA2
We have a plan to manage TinyUSDZ project under Light Transport Entertainment Inc. (By relicensing to Apatch 2.0)

- C++14 compiler
- gcc 4.9 or later
- Visual Studio 2019 or later(2017 may compiles)
- VS2019 16.10 or later you can use
CMakePresets.json
for easier building. - Can be compiled with standalone MSVC compilers(Build Tools for Visual Studio 2019)
- VS2019 16.10 or later you can use
- clang 3.4 or later https://clang.llvm.org/cxx_status.html
- llvm-mingw(clang) supported
- MinGW gcc supported, but not recommended(You may got compilation failure depending on your build configuration: syoyo#33 , and linking takes too much time if you use default bfd linker.). If you want to compile TinyUSDZ in MinGW environment, llvm-mingw(clang) is recommended to use.
Compilation with C++17 is also supported. Compile on C++20 and C++23 could be possible, but not well tested, since C++20/C++23 compiler is not yet mature(as of 2024/01))
If you are using CMake, just include tinyusdz repo with add_subdirectory
and set include path to <tinyusdz>/src
We recommend to use CMake 3.24 or later.
(Mininum requirement is 3.16)
...
# TinyUSDZ examples, tests and tools builds are disabled by default when
# tinyusdz is being built as a library with `add_subdirectory`
add_subdirectory(/path/to/tinyusdz tinyusdz)
target_include_directories(YOUR_APP PRIVATE "/path/to/tinyusdz/src")
# Namespaced static library target `tinyusdz::tinyusdz_static` is provided.
# At the moment we recommend to use static build of TinyUSDZ.
# You can use alias target `tinyusdz_static` also for legacy cmake version.
target_link_libraries(YOUR_APP PRIVATE tinyusdz::tinyusdz_static)
# For TinyUSDZ DLL(shared) library target, you can use
# `tinyusdz` library target
Another way is simply copy src
folder to your app, and add *.cc
files to your app's build system.
All include paths are set relative from src
folder, so you can just add include directory to src
folder.
See <tinyusdz>/CMakeLists.txt
and examples/sdlviewer/CMakeLists.txt for details.
TinyUSDZ does not generate any header files and source files before the build and after the build(before the installation stage), so you don't need to take care of any pre-processing and post-processing of source tree. For example, USD Ascii parser uses hand-written C++ code so no Bison/flex/PEG processing involved.
It may not be recommend to use tinyusdz as a git submodule, since the repo contains lots of codes required to build TinyUSDZ examples but these are not required for your app.
Please see CMake build options
and CMakeLists.txt
. In most case same identifier is defined from cmake build options: For example if you specify -DTINYUSDZ_PRODUCTION_BUILD=1
for cmake argument, TINYUSDZ_PRODUCTION_BUILD
is defined.
Cmake build is provided.
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make
Please take a look at scripts/bootstrap-cmake-*.sh
for some build configuraions.
Visual Studio 2019 and 2022 are supported.
CMakePresets.json
is provided for easier build on Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio 2022, but has lot of limitations(and seems parallel build is not working well so build is slow).
If you want flexibility, ordinary cmake .sln
generation approach by invoking vcsetup.bat
recommended.
(Edit VS version in vcsetup.bat
as you with before the run)
MinGW native and cross-compiling example using llvm-mingw(clang) is provided.
See scripts/bootstrap-cmake-mingw-win.sh
and scripts/bootstrap-cmake-llvm-mingw-cross.sh
for details.
One of benefit to use llvm-mingw is address sanitizer support on Windows app.
To run app(.exe
, you'll need libunwind.dll
and libc++.dll
on your working directory or search path)
For Windows native build, we assume ninja.exe
is installed on your system(You can use it from Meson package)
TINYUSDZ_PRODUCTION_BUILD
: Production build. Do not output debugging logs.TINYUSDZ_BUILD_TESTS
: Build testsTINYUSDZ_BUILD_EXAMPLES
: Build examples(note that not all examples inexamples
folder are built)TINYUSDZ_WITH_OPENSUBDIV
: Use OpenSubviv to tessellate subdivision surface.- OpenSubdiv code is included in TinyUSDZ repo. If you want to use external OpenSubdiv repo, specity the path to OpenSubdiv using
osd_DIR
cmake environment variable.
- OpenSubdiv code is included in TinyUSDZ repo. If you want to use external OpenSubdiv repo, specity the path to OpenSubdiv using
TINYUSDZ_WITH_AUDIO
: Support loading audio(mp3 and wav).TINYUSDZ_WITH_EXR
: Support loading EXR format HDR texture through TinyEXR.TINYUSDZ_WITH_PXR_COMPAT_API
