Nice Mitch Conner (nprofile…qk9e) Ok I'll break it down easily:
OpenXR is one of the most common protocols for software to speak with virtual reality headsets.
A virtual reality application will look for a OpenXR socket to communicate with. Information like the 3D space, user inputs, tracking, etc. are all sent over the OpenXR socket.
Many companies that have VR hardware have software that creates this OpenXR socket for VR software to talk to. Well known examples of these are SteamVR or Windows Mixed Reality. You call this an OpenXR Runtime.
If you want to run to run as much free software like I do, there's also this OpenXR Runtime that is free and runs on GNU/Linux it is Monado and that's what I'm using at the moment.
