Snapchat unveils a cool AR Lens that reacts to sound

A new Snapchat lens reacts to sounds in your environment.

Snapchat has introduced a lens that reacts to sound. It is a cute animal mask overlay that has ears and eyes that glow and pulse based on the sounds it hears. The company says that they will be launching more lenses that react to sound within the coming weeks. However, they did not reveal exactly which sounds get the lens to react in certain ways, but it seems like the louder the noise, the more it glows or moves.
