Snapchat is known for introducing new lenses and filters to its audience. Once again a new AR application has been introduced symbol image lens. This lens has the power to make someone look like their version of Sims. However, the main reason this lens is trending is that it can provide an overview of what the metaverse version will look like to users.
To use this feature, Snapchat users need to open their phone’s camera in the app and scan the QR code displayed on the app’s website. Once the scan is complete, users can see their copy of the metaverse. The most notable feature of this lens is that it removes acne and freckles from the face and provides incredibly smooth skin.
This type of lens is not something new introduced by Snapchat, but rather an updated version of the previous variants. When these lenses were initially introduced, they started to be tremendous as wildfire, especially on the popular short video platform TikTok.
Last August, Snapchat released a lens that can make a person look like a cartoon. It quickly started to become a trend when users decided to wear the lens on their pets, and as a result, the trend ended with almost 41 million views on TikTok. At the end of the year, the same lens was introduced again, but with better results than its predecessor.
The trend began to spread again with the 3D launch and garnered nearly 3 billion impressions in the first seven days. The latest version of Avatar is not only limited to the face, but can also change clothes to make it look cartoonish.
In early December, the app hosted an event. At the event, the app revealed that there are lens manufacturers in more than two hundred countries and that more than 2.5 million lenses have been created so far. According to Snapchat, 65 percent of Spotlight content is generated with the help of these lenses.
The company believes that the metaverse will look better in augmented reality than in virtual reality. Since augmented reality can allow users to be themselves, some believe that augmented reality should not be part of the definition because presenting only the best of themselves on online platforms can be dangerous.
