The Objects library is a shared repository of 3D models available to your organization. Global objects are shared across the platform; private objects are uploaded by your team. Objects marked as trackable can be used as reference targets during Holos Capture sessions.
Browsing and searching
Objects can be viewed as tiles or a table. Search by name, provider, or tag. Paginated at 50 per page; use Flagged and Archived links in the bottom bar to switch views.
Each tile shows the object name and provider. The platform library includes thousands of CC0 objects from providers like Poly by Google alongside any org-private objects your team has uploaded.
Object detail
Click any object to open its detail page. The top of the page shows:
- Name and created by
- Description: editable free-text field
- License: dropdown (e.g. None / All Rights Reserved, CC0)
- Tags: free-form labels for search and filtering
The stats panel in the top right shows:
| Field | Description |
|---|
| Triangles | Polygon count of the mesh |
| Size | File size |
| Trackable | Whether an AR reference descriptor exists for this object |
The full 3D viewer below lets you inspect the object from any angle.
Actions
The icon row in the top right of the detail page provides:
- Info: object metadata
- Flag: report an issue with the object
- Status: approval state
- Download: download the object file; click to select format (GLB, USDZ, etc.)
- Delete: remove the object from your org
Reporting issues
Click the flag icon to open the Report issue dialog. Select the issue category and click Report:
| Issue | Description |
|---|
| Backfaced textures | Geometry normals are inverted |
| Large textures | Texture resolution is excessive |
| Off origin | Object pivot point is misplaced |
| Bad thumbnail | Auto-generated thumbnail doesn’t represent the object |
| Bad orientation | Object is rotated incorrectly relative to its expected use |
| Other | Any other issue |
Uploading objects
Uploading objects requires admin or manager access.
Admins and managers can upload new org-private objects via the Upload button. Supported formats:
| Format | Notes |
|---|
| GLB | Primary format, no conversion needed |
| USDZ | Retained for AR; GLB generated for web preview |
| OBJ | Converted to GLB automatically |
| FBX | Converted to GLB automatically |
Making an object trackable
Not all objects are trackable by default. Trackable objects display a scan icon on their tile in the library. On the object detail page, the Trackable stat shows Yes or No.
To request tracking for an object, link it to a skill from the skill’s Tracked objects section. If the object isn’t yet trackable, the platform automatically submits a processing request to the Holos team. You’ll see a confirmation toast when this happens. The object cannot be used for tracking until processing is complete.
Processing requests are handled by the Holos team. Once complete, the Trackable field on the object detail page will update to Yes and the object will be available in Holos Capture.
Approving uploads
Object approvals are handled in the Object Approvals queue. See Object Approvals for the full review workflow.
