MNUFC 2024 kit reveal WebAR app

Minnesota United Football Club had a new kit design for the 2024 season and they wanted a way to reveal it to the public that was fun, interactive, and cutting-edge. In partnership with REM5 Studios, I helped bring their kit to life with a custom WebAR app and awesome code-based special effects.

This app was built using 8th Wall and leveraged its world tracking capability to make it seem like the kit was right there in the room with you. A mix of Three.js, A-Frame, and vanilla JS was used for 3D rendering and app flow management, with some custom special effects built with shaders and a GPGPU-based particle system. Various UI controls and overlays throughout the app were built with HTML, CSS, and vanilla JS.
