How does the Native Frame Carousel work ?

This article provides a functional overview of the Native Frame Carousel. It is intended to give a clear understanding of the feature before starting the technical integration.

What is the Native Frame Carousel

The Frame Carousel that allows users to browse recommended frames and switch between different variants of a frame without leaving the Virtual Try-On (VTO) experience.

The carousel's native component is rendered and managed by the VTO. No custom front-end development is required to display it.

Use cases

The Native Frame Carousel interface is configurable according to your needs. You can choose which sections to display or hide.

Frame variants

The carousel can also be used to display variants of the same frame. Variants allow users to switch between different options while staying on the same model.

Supported variant types are:

  • Frame color

  • Frame size

  • Lens color

Each variant updates the try-on rendering accordingly.

Recommended frames

The Frame Carousel can display a list of recommended frames inside the vritual try-on interface. These frames are presented as a list and allow users to quickly try alternative models.

Typical use cases include:

  • Highlighting bestsellers

  • Showing similar or alternative frames

  • Promoting a specific collection or brand

Preconditions

To use the Frame Carousel, the following conditions must be met:

  • The VTO is already integrated and functional on the website

High-level behavior

What is displayed

Depending on the configuration, the carousel can display:

  • A recommended frame section

  • One or more variant selectors for the active frame

Only items with all required fields correctly provided are displayed.

Where it appears

The Frame Carousel appears inside the VTO interface, as part of the native selector area. Its exact position is managed by the VTO and adapts to the device and screen size.

Interaction with the VTO

User interactions with the carousel directly update the virtual try-on:

  • Selecting a recommended frame loads it in the try-on

  • Selecting a variant updates the current frame rendering

All interactions happen without page reloads.
Both Live mode and 3D Viewer mode are compatible with the Frame Carousel.

Limitations

  • A maximum of 6 recommended frames can be displayed at the same time

  • Frames or variants with missing required data are not displayed
