8i WebPlayer

The 8i WebPlayer (volcap-player.js) is an embeddable browser player for 8i PAT volumetric content, served from the 8i CDN and documented publicly. It ships an A-Frame hologram component and a THREE.js EightiHologram class with documented attributes, properties, methods and playback events, adaptive-bitrate MPEG-DASH streaming (HLS on Safari), clearkey DRM, and WebXR / 8th Wall AR support. It is a client-side library rather than an HTTP API: 8i publishes no OpenAPI, GraphQL SDL, or other machine-readable contract for it.
