Starting with Corona 15, you can access Chaos Veras directly from the Corona Virtual Frame Buffer (VFB). This allows you to leverage AI-powered ideation and enhancement tools without leaving your rendering environment.
What is Chaos Veras?
Chaos Veras is an AI-driven visualization tool that uses your existing geometry and renders as a foundation. It allows you to:
Iterate Styles: Quickly swap between photorealistic, cinematic, or artistic styles.
Refine Details: Use text prompts to add context, vegetation, or architectural variations.
Animate: Create camera paths and transitions based on your AI-enhanced frames.

How to Use Veras with Corona
You don't need to wait for your final render to start playing with AI. Here is the typical workflow:
Start a Render: You can trigger Veras during Interactive Rendering, while a production render is running, or after it has finished.
Launch Veras: Click the Veras icon in the VFB. This will automatically capture the current VFB contents and open the Veras interface.
You can apply one of the ready-made presets to your image by selecting its icon and clicking "Render".

You can also adjust various parameters:
Prompt: Describe what you want to see (e.g., "Modern villa, sunset lighting, wet pavement").

Save your result directly from the Veras interface
Tips for Best Results
Resolution: For the best AI interpretation, ensure your VFB aspect ratio matches the desired output in Veras.
Prompting: Be specific. Instead of "House," try "Mid-century modern residence with cedar cladding and floor-to-ceiling glass."
Masking: Use the Veras selection tools to only change specific parts of your image (like the sky or the flooring) while keeping your main architecture untouched.
Note: Chaos Veras requires an active internet connection for AI processing and license verification.
