Face Drop is an augmented reality twist on the humble selfie: rather than taking photos of yourself, each snap of the camera instead places a copy of your lovely visage in the real world. Create big bold swirls of smiles, plaster the walls with scowls, or toss a duck face to some actual ducks. It's all possible with Face Drop! Features: • Capture 3D selfies and place them in the world using augmented reality. • Switch between four shooting modes that change how you place faces in the world. • Use toss mode for example to launch your face out from the camera. • Tossed and dropped faces bounce off of real world surfaces (requires a device with a LiDAR sensor) • Capture photos and videos of your face drops to share with friends. So give Face Drop a try and be sure to share anything fun you create using it!
