Facebook has selected Meitu for its AR abilities to help it catch up in animated photography. By joining Facebook’s AR Studio as an early beta partner, Meitu will bring three AR camera effects to the Facebook camera soon, it was announced by Facebook’s director of platform partnerships, Konstantinos Papamiltiadis at RISE in Hong Kong.Facebook选择与美图合作，通过美图的AR技术发展其动画摄影功能。美图已成为Facebook AR工作室第二大合作方，很快就将在Facebook摄像头上加入三种AR特效。Facebook的合作平台总监（Konstantinos Papamiltiadis）于香港RISE科技峰会宣布了这一消息。
Facebook announced its AR Studio in April at F8 and Meitu is the first company specializing in AR facial recognition to be selected and the first company based in Asia. Xiamen-based Meitu already has its apps installed on 1.1 billion unique devices and 450m monthly active users and its tech could reach many more very soon. The China’s company also makes smartphones optimized for selfies and at TechCrunch Shenzhen announced plans to harness its users’ frequent selfie-snapping for health monitoring, picking out minute changes in users’ appearance.
四月，在Facebook年度盛会F8上，Facebook宣布成立AR工作室，美图是AR人脸识别领域首家被选中合作的亚洲公司。美图总部位于厦门，app单机安装量达11亿，月活跃用户达4.5亿，吸引受众潜力巨大。美图还出品以自拍为主的智能手机，并在国际创新峰会上宣布将通过用户的自拍频率开发健康监管功能，从用户外貌上识别细微变化。
Facebook users will be able to use three features which utilize front or rear facing cameras—or both. As with many such filters and augmentations, you have to see the effect to understand it, but the descript ions from Meitu’s release capture the sense of the world we’re heading into.“Selfie from the Future” will, according to the release, add a “robotic eyeglass effect that transposes your face onto a heads-up display below. The rear camera effect features a touch-activated Meitu robot.”
Facebook用户未来能够通过美图的三种特效使用前置摄像头和后置摄像头。要想了解各种滤镜和图片装饰物所带来的拍摄效果，还得亲身体验。美图的发布会传达的则是一种未来感。“未来的自拍”将会加入“机械眼镜特效，这种特效将为拍摄者带上头部面具（heads-up display）。后置摄像头将具备触摸启动功能，这也是美图机器人的特色之一。”
