This shader emulates light refraction as it passes through media with different refractive indices.

However the effect is purely artistic/cosmetic as the method of distortion is not based on physical model of refraction.

– Masking parameters for refraction
– Alpha blending
– Sample count based quality tuning
– More Physically correct looking distortion

Update 1.2
– Added unlit distortion shader
– Added a simple particle distortion shader

Update 1.1
– Depth masking (objects in front do not get distorted contours)
– Color alpha controls transparency
– Added Factors to fade Texture maps
– Added Emissive properties

Features:
– Built on Unity’s Standard Surface shader
– Chromatic Abbreviation (CA)
– Normal Map affects Distortion
– Smoothness < 1 Blurs refracted scene

Includes:
– 3 Shaders with different GPU footprints
