Snapchat introduced 3D Camera Mode to add depth to your photos (via Snapchat)<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n

Snapchat selfies are about to be poppin’! Literally.<\/span><\/p>\n

The messaging app this week introduced<\/a> 3D Camera Mode, allowing users to turn flat photos into lifelike works of art just by moving their handset.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Use it to create snaps that capture spatial detail, changing perspective and appearance based on how you move your phone when you view them,” Team Snap wrote in a blog announcement.<\/span><\/p>\n

“These new snaps look different, act different, and feel different,” they said.<\/span><\/p>\n

The magical effect takes advantage of Apple’s TrueDepth camera system, which uses dot projector, infrared camera, and flood illuminator to map and recognize the owner’s face.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unlock your phone, use Apple Pay, and gain access to secure apps with just one look. Or use the technology, dubbed Face ID, to bring emoji to life as animated characters.<\/span><\/p>\n
