	<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].

			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_capabilities" qualifiers="const">
			<return type="int" />

			<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 visualize the play area. This returns an empty array if this feature is not supported or if the information is not yet available.

				Returns the an array of supported environment blend modes, see [enum XRInterface.EnvironmentBlendMode].
			</description>
		</method>
		<method name="get_system_info">
			<return type="Dictionary" />
			<description>
				Returns a [Dictionary] with extra system info. Interfaces are expected to return [code]XRRuntimeName[/code] and [code]XRRuntimeVersion[/code] providing info about the used XR runtime. Additional entries may be provided specific to an interface.
				[b]Note:[/b]This information may only be available after [method initialize] was successfully called.

		</method>
		<method name="get_tracking_status" qualifiers="const">
			<return type="int" enum="XRInterface.TrackingStatus" />
			<description>

			</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>
				Sets the active environment blend mode.
				[param mode] is the environment blend mode starting with the next frame.
				[b]Note:[/b] Not all runtimes support all environment blend modes, so it is important to check this at startup. For example:
				[codeblock]
				                func _ready():
				                    var xr_interface: XRInterface = XRServer.find_interface("OpenXR")
				                    if xr_interface and xr_interface.is_initialized():
				                        var vp: Viewport = get_viewport()
				                        vp.use_xr = true
				                        var acceptable_modes = [ XRInterface.XR_ENV_BLEND_MODE_OPAQUE, XRInterface.XR_ENV_BLEND_MODE_ADDITIVE ]
				                        var modes = xr_interface.get_supported_environment_blend_modes()
				                        for mode in acceptable_modes:

				                                xr_interface.set_environment_blend_mode(mode)
