Banuba Enhances Facial Feature Editing in Face AR SDK

Facial feature editing, or face morphing, was already a feature in the Banuba Face Augmented Reality SDK prior to version 1.7. However, with the latest update, the capabilities have been significantly enhanced. Users can now effortlessly customize the following features, as demonstrated in a short video:

  • Eyebrows (spacing, height, bend)

  • Eyes (shape, size, spacing, squint, lower eyelid size & position)

  • Nose (width, length, tip size)

  • Mouth (size, smile, shape, lip thickness)

  • Cheeks (size of the cheeks and cheekbones, dimples/sunken cheeks)

  • Chin (length, width, V-shape)


The inclusion of these new features opens up numerous potential applications. One notable example is the ability to simulate the outcomes of plastic surgery. Additionally, it enables users to edit photos, alter their appearance during video calls, and explore a wide range of possibilities. Moreover, face morphing can be combined with other similar features, such as face touch-up, to achieve even more impressive effects.

Face feature editing comes as part of v1.7 update, which also brought along a massive performance boost. 


Virtual backgrounds, one of the most popular features, has also received a performance update. It will be especially noticeable on Apple devices – up to 10x faster work.
