If you are a Camera Kit developer please review the Lens Studio compatibility table to ensure your Lens will work in your application.
The current latest Spectacles Firmware does not support this Lens Studio version. Please download and install the latest supported version of Lens Studio.
Release Notes
Dual Camera custom component allows creators to develop Lenses that use both Front and Back camera! (available in Asset Library).
Music Lyrics API and custom component lets you play Music in your Lens without embedding the track, and gives you access to Lyrics data to visualize as part of the experience (Music Lyrics custom component is available in Asset Library).
Bitmoji Face Animator custom component allows to easily animate the face of Bitmoji avatar in cases when facial animations are not present. Provides access to 10 facial animations and tools to transition between states.
Body Instance Segmentation Texture provides a segmentation mask for the selected person in the scene that allows creation of more advanced effects.
Curve to Material and VFX Integration
Users can use curves directly with Material and VFX systems without the use of JavaScript.
Graph Nodes : Added 5 nodes to support sampling in coming curves.
Asset Library: Added Curves in Material and VFX example pack in the Asset Library.
VFX Spawn Redesign: provides more control over spawning particles in VFX Graph
Added 3 new nodes, including the new Emit container node
New VFX Component API for enabling or disabling emission
Updated VFX presets to use the Emit container
Asset Library: Added new Emission Control VFX example pack
Easy Lens - New Features Added:
User-Provided Assets – customize the lens with your own images.
3D Hair – Transform your hairstyle with vibrant colors!
Face Art – Enhance your look with face overlays!
2D Frames – Elevate your lens with stunning 2D frames.
Plugin development: `this.pluginSystem` is now a read-only property and no longer needs to be manually assigned. You should skip manually assigning it when extending plugin base types.
Another benefit of this change is that, you can skip calling `the plugin's constructor if you are not doing anything else within it. If you do add a constructor, you will still need to call `super` as before.
Improvements
FriendsComponent has been redesigned with updates to the sorting and filtering logic. The original sender’s Bitmoji is now displayed by default in the Reply Camera.
Classes in API definition files (d.ts) provided by Lens Studio now include `static` methods instead of separating them into their own `namespace` to make it easier to find.
Gaussian Splatting updates: import settings, multiple assets naming.
