The Face Texture resource allows you to get a your Camera texture centered around a part of your face. It can be used, for example, for creating a picture in picture effect, or for applying a user’s face to a 3D object in your Lens.

Create the Face Texture

To create a Face Texture resource, first click the + button in the Asset Browser panel. Then, select Face Texture.

Assign Texture to a Screen Image

The Face Texture resource can be used anywhere a regular texture can be used.

One way of displaying it is to use a Screen Image. In the Scene Hierarchy panel: + > Screen Image.

Then, in the Inspector panel, assign Texture to your newly added Face Texture resource.

Position The Face Texture

To modify where the image is displayed, double-click on the object in the Scene Hierarchy panel. This will open up the relevant editor, in this case, the 2D Editor panel.

In the 2D Editor panel, you can move your Screen Image around to position your Face Texture in the right place.
