Shader Patches

Use visual shader patches to create, apply and transform textures and materials in Spark AR Studio.

Visual shaders can be used to make more complex changes to a material than you can achieve through the Inspector.

Spark AR Studio also includes signed distance field (SDF) patches - use these to create all kinds of shapes and patterns, without needing to add your own textures to a project.
