International Classification:

H04L 5/00
H04L 27/18

Abstract:

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and method for rendering three-dimensional captions (3D) in real-world environments depicted in image content. An editing interface is displayed on a client device. The editing interface includes an input component displayed with a view of a camera feed. A first input comprising one or more text characters is received. In response to receiving the first input, a two-dimensional (2D) representation of the one or more text characters is displayed. In response to detecting a second input, a preview interface is displayed. Within the preview interface, a 3D caption based on the one or more text characters is rendered at a position in a 3D space captured within the camera feed. A message is generated that includes the 3D caption rendered at the position in the 3D space captured within the camera feed.

Abstract:

The subject technology selects a set of augmented reality content generators from available augmented reality content generators, the selected set of augmented reality content generators comprising at least one augmented reality content generator for applying a three-dimensional (3D) effect. The subject technology causes display of a carousel interface including selectable graphical items, each selectable graphical item corresponding to a respective augmented reality content generator. The subject technology receives a selection of a first selectable graphical item from the selectable graphical items, the first selectable graphical item including a first augmented reality content generator for applying a first 3D effect. The subject technology applies, to first image data and first depth data, the first augmented reality content generator corresponding to the selected first selectable graphical item. The subject technology generates a message including the applied first augmented reality content generator to the first image data and the first depth data.

Abstract:

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program and a method for rendering virtual modifications to real-world environments depicted in image content. A reference surface is detected in a three-dimensional (3D) space captured within a camera feed produced by a camera of a computing device. An image mask is applied to the reference surface within the 3D space captured within the camera feed. A visual effect is applied to the image mask corresponding to the reference surface in the 3D space. The application of the visual effect to the image mask causes a modified surface to be rendered in presenting the camera feed on a display of the computing device.
