Depth Shadows AR - 3D shadows for AR

Depth Shadows AR will render realistic depth-based contact shadows for your project. It is built with Augmented Reality in mind, and also works great with non-AR projects.

Depth Shadows AR does not rely on Unity's shadow rendering, which can be fully disabled. It uses an optimized pipeline to render a fast depth image of the plane that needs shadows, and renders it with custom shaders.

Depth Shadows AR can be used for any application, including non-AR projects!

Features

• Render performant & realistic depth-based shadows
• Faster than URP shadows
• Designed for Augmented Reality applications/games
• Customizable visuals
• Scalable shadow receiving plane
