Exploring WebGL: Dynamic Model Textures and Radial Noise

Today, I’d like to share a cool WebGL experiment that draws inspiration from a discovery on Pinterest. The demo highlights two interesting visual effects. Firstly, it features a seamless texture transition on a 3D model of a can, accompanied by a dynamic noise effect. Secondly, it incorporates a radial noise field that pulsates from the center, extending beyond the boundaries of the screen.

Our Journey to a Multi-Brand Figma Design System

Two years ago, we set out to create SnappOS, a white-label infotainment system aimed at carmakers who don’t have the time or expertise to build their own. We work with carmakers ranging from high-end hypercars to mass-volume micromobility vehicles. All are served by one product.
