<feDisplacementMap>

Baseline Widely available

This feature is well established and works across many devices and browser versions. It’s been available across browsers since ⁨July 2015⁩.

The<feDisplacementMap>SVG filter primitive uses the pixel values from the image fromin2 to spatially displace the image fromin.

The formula for the transformation looks like this:

P'(x,y) ← P(x + scale * (XC(x,y) - 0.5), y + scale * (YC(x,y) - 0.5))

whereP(x,y) is the input image,in, andP'(x,y) is the destination.XC(x,y) andYC(x,y) are the component values of the channel designated byxChannelSelector andyChannelSelector.

Like other filter primitives, it handles color components in thelinearRGBcolor space by default. You can usecolor-interpolation-filters to usesRGB instead.
