Portable and persistent virtual identity systems and methods

An apparatus for providing a ready room in virtual reality (VR) to transition an avatar representing a persistent virtual identity between a plurality of applications, comprising:

• memory to store 3D assets;
• and
• one or more processing units configured to:
• process a 3D asset received from a source application and stored in the memory;
• determine a plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset;
• compare the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset with a plurality of standards enforced by a destination application;
• configure the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset to conform with the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application based on a determination that the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset do not conform to the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application;
• and
• transfer the 3D asset to the destination application based on a determination that the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset conform to the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application.

A computer-implemented method for maintaining a persistent 3D asset between a plurality of applications, comprising:

• receiving at a computing device a 3D asset in an electronic format from a source application of the plurality of applications;
• determining, by one or more processors of the computing device, one or more features of the 3D asset corresponding to standards associated with the 3D asset;
• comparing, by the one or more processors, the one or more features of the 3D asset that correspond to the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset to a plurality of standards enforced by a destination application of the plurality of applications;
• configuring, by the one or more processors, the one or more features of the 3D asset to conform with the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application based on a determination that the one or more features of the 3D asset do not conform to the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application;
• and
• transferring the 3D asset to the destination application based on a determination that the plurality of standards associated with the 3D asset conform to the plurality of standards enforced by the destination application.
