4.2.2.2. Requests from Client to Server

A client may send any of the following one or more times per frame:

  • DisplayInfo

  • ControllerPoses

  • OriginPose

  • Inputs

  • ResourceRequests

  • ResourceAcknowledgements

  • NodeUpdates

The Client sends all of its messages in its local units and Axes Standard. For example, if the Client works in metres and has Y vertical, positions and rotations sent to the server will be in this format.

The Server sends all of its commands to the Client in the Client’s local units and standard.
