Scene with Chromatic Aberration effect turned on.

Chromatic Aberration creates fringes of color along boundaries that separate dark and light parts of the image. It mimics the color distortion that a real-world camera produces when its lens fails to join all colors to the same point. See Wikipedia: Chromation aberration.

Using Chromatic Aberration

Chromatic Aberration uses the Volume system, so to enable and modify Chromatic Aberration properties, you must add a Chromatic Aberration override to a Volume in your Scene.

To add Chromatic Aberration to a Volume:

1. In the Scene or Hierarchy view, select a GameObject that contains a Volume component to view it in the Inspector.
2. In the Inspector, navigate to Add Override > Post-processing and click on Chromatic Aberration. Universal Render Pipeline applies Chromatic Aberration to any Camera this Volume affects.
