Snapchat Lenses:
Lens Studio is one of the quickest, most powerful ways to prototype AR camera features. I made a number of lenses when I worked at Snapchat. Some of these are pretty silly (it is the nature of the medium), but collectively they have received over 1 million views.
You can checkout the the whole collection, or try out some of my favorites below:
|
Uses face tracking with hand tracking interaction to let the viewer peel off their face to reveal something under their skin. |
|
|
Uses face tracking to keep the subject's head at the center of the frame (when feasible) at a fixed width. Moving the camera toward or away from the subject creates a dolly zoom effect. |
|
|
A cat mirror - uses image segmentation ML model and a shader to reflect cats and only cats. |
|
|
Uses Hand Tracking to draw a simple manicure on someone's finger nails. |
|
|
Uses Hand Tracking to turn your hand into a classic grade school Thanksgiving hand turkey. |
|
|
Concept Lens using Face Tracking help guide a user with low vision through taking a selfie. |
|
|
Uses Face Feature Tracking an a vertex shader to simulate bending a spoon with your mind. |
|
|
This is just wrong. |
|
|
Uses Mouth open detection and particle effect to simulate spraying covid everywhere. |
|
|
Uses mouth open detection and particle effect to simulate breathing smoke. |
|
|
Uses Hand Tracking create hand tatoos - only works on one hand, but this style of lens actual got the relevant team to get two hand tracking eventually. |
