	<brief_description>
		Base class for an XR interface implementation.
	</brief_description>
	<description>
		This class needs to be implemented to make an AR or VR platform available to Godot and these should be implemented as C++ modules or GDExtension modules. Part of the interface is exposed to GDScript so you can detect, enable and configure an AR or VR platform.
		Interfaces should be written in such a way that simply enabling them will give us a working setup. You can query the available interfaces through [XRServer].

	<methods>
		<method name="get_camera_feed_id">
			<return type="int" />
			<description>
				If this is an AR interface that requires displaying a camera feed as the background, this method returns the feed ID in the [CameraServer] for this interface.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_capabilities" qualifiers="const">
			<return type="int" />
			<description>
				Returns a combination of [enum Capabilities] flags providing information about the capabilities of this interface.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_name" qualifiers="const">
			<return type="StringName" />
			<description>
				Returns the name of this interface (OpenXR, OpenVR, OpenHMD, ARKit, etc).
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_play_area" qualifiers="const">
			<return type="PackedVector3Array" />
			<description>
				Returns an array of vectors that denotes the physical play area mapped to the virtual space around the [XROrigin3D] point. The points form a convex polygon that can be used to react to or visualise the play area. This returns an empty array if this feature is not supported or if the information is not yet available.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_render_target_size">
			<return type="Vector2" />
			<description>
				Returns the resolution at which we should render our intermediate results before things like lens distortion are applied by the VR platform.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_tracking_status" qualifiers="const">
			<return type="int" enum="XRInterface.TrackingStatus" />
			<description>
				If supported, returns the status of our tracking. This will allow you to provide feedback to the user whether there are issues with positional tracking.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_view_count">
			<return type="int" />
			<description>
				Returns the number of views that need to be rendered for this device. 1 for Monoscopic, 2 for Stereoscopic.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="initialize">
			<return type="bool" />
			<description>
				Call this to initialize this interface. The first interface that is initialized is identified as the primary interface and it will be used for rendering output.
				After initializing the interface you want to use you then need to enable the AR/VR mode of a viewport and rendering should commence.
				[b]Note:[/b] You must enable the XR mode on the main viewport for any device that uses the main output of Godot, such as for mobile VR.
				If you do this for a platform that handles its own output (such as OpenVR) Godot will show just one eye without distortion on screen. Alternatively, you can add a separate viewport node to your scene and enable AR/VR on that viewport. It will be used to output to the HMD, leaving you free to do anything you like in the main window, such as using a separate camera as a spectator camera or rendering something completely different.
				While currently not used, you can activate additional interfaces. You may wish to do this if you want to track controllers from other platforms. However, at this point in time only one interface can render to an HMD.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="is_initialized" qualifiers="const">
			<return type="bool" />
			<description>
				Is [code]true[/code] if this interface has been initialised.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="set_play_area_mode">
			<return type="bool" />
			<param index="0" name="mode" type="int" enum="XRInterface.PlayAreaMode" />
			<description>
				Sets the active play area mode, will return [code]false[/code] if the mode can't be used with this interface.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="supports_play_area_mode">
			<return type="bool" />
			<param index="0" name="mode" type="int" enum="XRInterface.PlayAreaMode" />
			<description>
				Call this to find out if a given play area mode is supported by this interface.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="trigger_haptic_pulse">
			<return type="void" />
			<param index="0" name="action_name" type="String" />
			<param index="1" name="tracker_name" type="StringName" />
			<param index="2" name="frequency" type="float" />
			<param index="3" name="amplitude" type="float" />
			<param index="4" name="duration_sec" type="float" />
			<param index="5" name="delay_sec" type="float" />
			<description>
				Triggers a haptic pulse on a device associated with this interface.
				[param action_name] is the name of the action for this pulse.
				[param tracker_name] is optional and can be used to direct the pulse to a specific device provided that device is bound to this haptic.
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="uninitialize">
			<return type="void" />
			<description>
				Turns the interface off.
			</description>
		</method>

			On an AR interface, [code]true[/code] if anchor detection is enabled.
		</member>
		<member name="interface_is_primary" type="bool" setter="set_primary" getter="is_primary" default="false">
			[code]true[/code] if this is the primary interface.

	<signals>
		<signal name="play_area_changed">
			<param index="0" name="mode" type="int" />
			<description>
				Emitted when the play area is changed. This can be a result of the player resetting the boundary or entering a new play area, the player changing the play area mode, the world scale changing or the player resetting their headset orientation.
