Atmosphere Engine generates a looping virtual background from a text prompt and previews it live on your webcam, with no green screen. Loops run 3 to 10 seconds (5 by default) and cost 2 credits per second. A still backdrop frozen from your loop or an uploaded image is free. Ready-made backgrounds are in the public Atmospheres gallery.
