Reference#

Look up schema declarations, output types and sensor terminology here. For behavior and examples, use the guides linked below.

Reference pages#

  • Sensor API Schemas — generated declarations for sensor prims and API schemas, including attribute names, types and defaults.

  • Lens Distortion Schemas — generated declarations for the lens-distortion APIs applied to USD Camera prims.

  • Glossary — sensor terms and abbreviations, with links to their detailed definitions.

  • C API and Python API — output container definitions.

The generated schema reference includes prims and APIs without a model guide in these docs. A schema declaration alone does not establish model support.
