TikTok is in the process of creating its own Augmented Reality lenses. With these lenses you can add digital elements to your photo. Think of effects like turning your face into a super cute fluffy pussy, or adding crazy beards, glasses and/or hats to your face. A digital element is therefore added to reality, in your photo. With these lenses, TikTok takes over an important function of Snapchat and Facebook, among others.
TikTok Effect Studio
TikTok is working on an AR toolset with which they want to offer different AR experiences. That reports TechCrunch† At the moment as a developer you can register yourself on the new Effect House website from TikTok, in which you can then create, process and/or edit your own effects. These AR effects would then have to be made suitable for the TikTok app and then become available to all TikTok users. The effects created in the TikTok Effect Studio should be made specifically for TikTok, they are not intended to work with third-party apps.
