VR schema proposal - need some help

Hi. I am working with a company that makes 3D cameras and provides
hosting/embedding services for their client’s projects. Their clients,
purchase the camera, and then use the company’s SaaS solutions to provide
3D photography and scanning services for their clients. At this moment,
they’ve asked me to keep their name confidential until they get some
clearance; but we wanted to get this conversation going with you as soon as
possible.



I’ve been with them to create structured data integrations not only for
their site, but most importantly for the embedded 3D spaces their clients
use to share their productions. Think YouTube—once a photographer uploads
their photos to the system, they can then grab an embed URL, currently an
iFrame source, to do with what they will. It’s this embed code we want to
create proper schema markup that will allow us to identify my client, their
customers, and their customer’s customer properly, when any of the embeds
are shared throughout the Web.



The markup below is our attempt to extend the MediaObject to now include a
VirtualRealityObject, just as AudioObject and VideoObject life witin
MediaObject. My client’s productions have their own file types, encoding
types, media players, etc. All of which mimic the variety of properties
shared between the sub-MediaObjects. Further, beyond my client, it seems
this approach would facilitate the variety or growing properties and
schemas related to the evolving world of VR and Mixed Reality media,
assets, and experiences.



This is my first stab at how we’d want to look at this being integrated. I
went ahead an used the old extension markup, as I am not sure how to fully
communicate with you in the new extension approach. Hoping to get some
directives and insights from your minds at this point!



Thanks! Aaron
