⚡️ New TikTok Features Thread

1. TikTok is working on a TikTok Avatars feature

The feature lets you use your phone's camera to take a selfie with a fun facial expression which your avatar will match.

You would be able to fully customise the look of your avatar.

@jasonzhan16 @peterlombard @MGHMedicine The note must existed in the first place but now gone due to possible censorship. Very shameful. https://t.co/i1JYL9UlIn

📢Consider submitting your work to the Technical Communications & Posters programs of SIGGRAPH Asia 2021, which is still scheduled to be a physical event in Tokyo🗼, with the option of online presentation if preferred -- great regardless of your travel preference!

All I can say is that I look better than the ones with Van Gogh.

Deep Light Magi based on #ARCore! The shading looks adequately implemented.

The ARCore Environmental HDR feature helped to bring Santa alive with better lighting in AR! Santa was with our tree during rehearsal 😆 the lighting direction is also generally correct!

@michaelhazani @googleio FINALLY thanks for the heads up! Looks interesting, a little surprised they are blurring the cube map automatically. Haven't dug into what's actually happening yet. Excited about shadow directions though! Also the image goes white after tracking is lost🤔

[Alex Ma @wmafx]

@DanMillerDev @michaelhazani @googleio Looks so cool! Thanks for trying 👍👍👍

[Christina Tong (she/her) @christinamtong]

Come learn about lighting, ML, and ARCore!
