1      Definition

A Data Type including a collection of Basic Visual Objects.

A Visual Object can have a hierarchical structure where Visual Objects contain Basic Visual Objects and Visual Objects.

2      Functional Requirements

A Visual Object may include:

  1. ID of a Virtual Space (M-Instance) where it is or intended to be located.
  2. ID of the Visual Object.
  3. Space-Time information of the Visual Object.
  4. Basic Visual Object and Visual Objects included in the Visual Objects.
  5. Annotation data set including:
    1. Annotations
    2. Space-Times of the Annotations.
    3. Rights to perform Actions on the Visual Object.
  6. The Rights that may be exercised on the Visual Object.

Note that.

  1. A Visual Object that does not include Sub-Scenes and only one Basic Visual Object is a Basic Visual Object.
  2. The Space-Time information of a Basic Visual Object and Visual Object included in a Visual Object may be superseded by the Space-Time information of the Visual Object containing them.

5     Conformance Testing

A Data instance Conforms with Visual Object (OSD-VIO) if:

  1. The Data validates against the Visual Object’s JSON Schema.
  2. All Data in the Visual Object’s JSON Schema
    1. Have the specified type
    2. Validate against their JSON Schemas
    3. Conform with their Data Qualifiers.
