Frequently Asked Questions
QCan the lens move automatically?
The lens move is primarily scroll-driven for narrative impact, but it can be easily adapted to follow the mouse cursor on hover.
QWhat should I reveal under the lens?
Highly detailed content like circuit boards, code snippets, or high-fidelity product internals works best for this effect.
QIs it compatible with mobile?
Yes, the lens movement is mapped to vertical scroll progress, ensuring the reveal effect is clear on vertical screens.
