Seeking Examples of Glass-like Effects

Questions
1

I’m looking for examples of glass-like effects created using BabylonJS, similar to the ones found in the link provided. Could anyone share Playground links for such examples?

I don’t think we have such advanced glass effects in Babylon at the moment. The classic glass effect can be achieved by combining reflection and refraction in the PBR material:

Is this what you are looking for?

Thank you for sharing this!, I was looking more something advanced like in the link.

The effect in the link is almost impossible to do on mobile due to the resources involved in the caustics generation + dispersion and such.

@PirateJC has a video of caustics for nme IIRC https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TJBk3G4mMMo

Did you find a solution, with Babylon or elsewhere?

I’m looking for a similar effect. Found this one, but it does not have WebGPU support:
