Methods and systems are disclosed for generating mirrored 3D assets for an extended reality (XR) experience. The system receives a three-dimensional (3D) object comprising a target and analyzes the 3D object using one or more machine learning models to generate data associated with a mirrored version of the target of the 3D object. The system applies the mirrored version of the target to a mirrored version of the 3D object using the generated data and generates a new 3D object comprising the mirrored version of the 3D object and the mirrored version of the target.

Methods and systems are disclosed for performing operations comprising: receiving an image that includes a depiction of a person wearing a fashion item; generating a segmentation of the fashion item worn by the person depicted in the image; identifying a facial expression of the user depicted in the image; and in response to identifying the facial expression, applying one or more augmented reality elements to the fashion item worn by the person based on the segmentation of the fashion item worn by the person.

Controlling interactive fashion based on facial expressions

Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system for presenting AR items. The system performs operations including receiving a video that includes a depiction of one or more real-world objects in a real-world environment and obtaining depth data related to the real-world environment. The operations include generating a three-dimensional (3D) model of the real-world environment based on the video and the depth data and adding an augmented reality (AR) item to the video based on the 3D model of the real-world environment. The operations include determining that the AR item has been placed on a vertical plane of the real-world environment and modifying an orientation of the AR item to correspond to an orientation of the vertical plane.
