Architecture & Requirements
Core Bridge XR components and infrastructure requirements.
Bridge XR combines hosted services, playback surfaces, and a Unity workflow.
Core components
Authentication
Bridge XR can connect to your institution's existing SSO provider.
Backend services
The backend runs in your cloud environment and handles platform logic, data, and experience delivery.
Storage and database
You need:
object storage for uploaded experience bundles
a PostgreSQL database for platform data
Web Dashboard
The web dashboard is the browser-based management surface.
It is hosted on your infrastructure and includes the web player for Unity web exports.
Bridge XR App
The app is the installed client used to play experiences on Meta Quest headsets.
This is the headset-based player in the Bridge XR platform.
Unity authoring stack
Developers need:
Unity
Zoe for Unity
the Bridge XR integration package
This stack is used to build, prepare, and upload experiences.
Developers can export for different playback targets, including the web.
What your team needs to plan
a URL for the web dashboard
a cloud environment for frontend and backend hosting
object storage
a PostgreSQL database
an SSO setup
a distribution method for the Bridge XR app
a plan for which experiences run in the browser and which run on Meta Quest
Typical ownership
IT / platform owners: infrastructure, SSO, app rollout
Administrators: workspace setup and member access
