Facebook Debuted Its Overhauled AR Studio for Facebook Camera at Its F8 Conference

Visual programming capabilities and Sketchfab integration were among the highlights

Facebook introduced a revamped version of its AR Studio for Facebook Camera at its F8 annual developer conference in San Jose, Calif., Tuesday.

The social network debuted AR Studio at F8 2017 last April with the goal of accelerating augmented reality efforts across the social network.

Engineering director Ficus Kirkpatrick detailed the changes to AR Studio in a blog post.

Visual programming capabilities were added to AR Studio, enabling creators to drag and drop elements such as custom animations, interactions and logos into their scenes without the need for coding in JavaScript.
