ASCRIBE-XR, a novel computational platform designed to facilitate the visualization and exploration of 3D volumetric data and mesh data in the context of synchrotron experiments, is described. Using Godot and PC-VR technologies, the platform enables users to dynamically load and manipulate 3D data sets to gain deeper insights into their research. The program's multi-user capabilities, enabled through WebRTC, and MQTT, allow multiple users to share data and visualize together in real-time, promoting a more interactive and engaging research experience. We describe the design and implementation of ASCRIBE-XR, highlighting its key features and capabilities. We will also discuss its utility in the context of synchrotron research, including examples of its application and potential benefits for the scientific community.
