Abstract: A methodology is described that provides access to augmented reality components maintained by a messaging server system directly from a third party resource, without having to first launch an associated messaging client (either a stand-alone app or a web-based version of the app). The technical problem of invoking an augmented reality component maintained by the messaging server system directly from a third party app is addressed by permitting third party app developers to include a deep link that references the identification of a desired augmented reality component into their third party resource. The deep link invoked from a third party resource causes activation of the messaging client, loading the augmented reality component represented by the identification referenced in the deep link, and activating, from the messaging client, a camera of the computer device that is executing the third party resource.

Abstract: A contextual filter system configured to perform operations that include, capturing an image frame at a client device, wherein the image frame includes a depiction of an object, identifying an object category of the object based on the depiction of the object within the image frame, accessing media content associated with the object category within a media repository, generating a presentation of the media content, and causing display of the presentation of the media content within the image frame at the client device.

Abstract: A content display system can control which content and how the content is displayed based on viewing parameters, such as a map zoom level, and physical distance parameters, e.g., a geo-fence distance and an icon visibility distance. Different combinations of input (e.g., zoom level and physical distances) yield a myriad of pre-set content displays on the client device, thereby allowing a creator of an icon to finely tune how content displayed otherwise accessed.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for displaying augmented reality content. The program and method provide for receiving, from a first application running on a device, a request to switch to a second application on the device, the request identifying augmented reality content to display with image data captured by a camera of the device; providing, in response to receiving the request, for switching from the first application to the second application; providing for the second application to activate the camera to capture the image data; and providing for the second application to display the image data captured by the camera with the augmented reality content.

Abstract: A user interface method is provided by an SDK embedded in a third party resource running on a portable device including a camera and a display. The method includes receiving an API call to display an image processing user interface and in response, displaying a first user interface comprising a list of selectable graphical items corresponding to a group of available image modification features. If user selection of a desired graphical item from the list of selectable graphical items is received, image modification features corresponding to the desired graphical item are applied to an image received from the camera, generating a modified image. A second user interface including the modified image is then displayed on the display.

Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and methods are presented for generation and manipulation of three dimensional (3D) models. The system and methods cause presentation of an interface frame encompassing a field of view of an image capture device. The systems and methods detect an object of interest within the interface frame, generate a movement instruction with respect to the object of interest, and detect a first change in position and a second change in position of the object of interest. The systems and methods generate a 3D model of the object of interest based on the first change in position and the second change in position.

Abstract: A context based augmented reality system can be used to display augmented reality elements over a live video feed on a client device. The augmented reality elements can be selected based on a number of context inputs generated by the client device. The context inputs can include location data of the client device and location data of nearby physical places that have preconfigured augmented elements. The preconfigured augmented elements can be preconfigured to exhibit a design scheme of the corresponding physical place.

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 three-dimensional virtual objects within real-world environments. Virtual rendering of a three-dimensional virtual object can be altered appropriately as a user moves around the object in the real-world through utilization of a redundant tracking system comprising multiple tracking sub-systems. Virtual object rendering can be with respect to a reference surface in a real-world three-dimensional space depicted in a camera view of a mobile computing device.
