Authentication & user identity for immersive XR experiences

Enterprises deploying VR/AR training have no standard way to authenticate users, link session data to real identities, or meet compliance requirements inside headsets.

Analytics data can't be tied to individual users, limiting training insights and compliance reporting.

Every customer builds a custom workaround — or skips identity entirely.

IT & compliance teams block VR rollouts that lack SSO, audit trails, and data privacy controls.

Key Capabilities

Branded Sign-In

  • Customizable sign-in with enterprise SSO, MFA, and social login powered by WorkOS with SAML/OIDC support.
  • 5 purpose-built auth methods for VR/AR — from verbal codes and participant selection to QR scanning.
  • User & group management, role assignments, audit logs, and analytics configuration from a single pane of glass.

User Identifications

  • Map every analytics session to a verified user identity for per-user insights, learning progress tracking, and performance benchmarking.
  • User-level dashboards, learning progress tracking, and performance benchmarking transforming analytics from “what happened” to “who did what.”

Learning Management System (LMS) Integration

  • xAPI statements and SCORM packages flow directly to your learning management system for unified training records.
  • Launch VR training directly from your learning management system. Learners scan a QR code or enter a session code to link their LMS identity to the headset.
  • Users authenticate through a branded web portal, then bridge into the headset with a one-time code or QR scan. Supports SAML, OIDC, Google, Microsoft, and email/password via WorkOS.

Flexible Login Methods

  1. Verbal Code: Read a 6-digit code aloud to an instructor for supervised sessions.
  2. Select Participant: Pick your name from a pre-loaded roster ideal for group training.
  3. Numeric Keypad: Enter a 4-digit PIN on a VR-optimized number pad.
  4. Full Keyboard: Username/email entry with QWERTY keyboard, dictation, and hand tracking support.
  5. QR Code Scan: Scan a QR code from the web portal using the headset's passthrough camera.

Privacy & Compliance

  • Architecture designed for SOC 2 compliance from day one with complete audit trails.
  • Per-customer data segregation with encrypted storage and configurable retention policies.
  • Configurable data residency, user consent management, and right-to-deletion support.
  • WorkOS handles credential storage — Cognitive3D never sees or stores passwords.

Conclusion

Add enterprise authentication and user identity to your XR experiences without building it from scratch. Organize and evaluate how individual users behave, decide, and perform by accessing XR data and replaying sessions.
