Microsoft has released Pix, a new camera app for the iPhone that uses the company's artificial intelligence to improve your photos. Pix can automatically and intelligently adjust elements like exposure, focus, and color. It can even automatically create Live Photo-like images by stitching bursts together.
Here's what Microsoft is offering with Pix:
- People-First – People are the most important photo subjects, so Microsoft Pix uses many intelligent features to help them look their best, without creating extra work for you.
- Smart – Microsoft Pix is a bit like having a pro photographer inside your camera, tweaking settings, selecting the best shots, and enhancing them on the fly.
- Fun – Microsoft Pix helps you have fun with photos and videos, by doing things like creating a short, looping video clip when it senses motion in a photo, or helping you stabilize and time lapse your videos.
- p 10 Coolest Features:
- Smart settings – Automatically checks scene and lighting between each shutter tap, and updates settings between each shot.
- Face recognition – When it detects a face in the shot, it automatically optimizes settings to help people look their best.
- Moment capture - Captures a burst of frames every time you tap the shutter button, including frames before and after your tap, so you won't miss the right moment.
- Best Image(s) - Automatically selects up to 3 of the best and most unique shots from the burst, and immediately deletes the rest, so you don't waste your phone's memory or your time comparing and storing similar frames.
- Image quality – Uses discarded burst frames to enhance each Best Image, improving exposure and color, and reducing noise and blur.
- Live Image – Automatically creates a short, looping video, by stitching together the frames from the burst into a Live Image, but ONLY when it senses motion in your shot, so it won't waste a ton of your phone's memory.
- Hyperlapse – Videos shot with Microsoft Pix are automatically stabilized for smoother playback, and can be time lapsed and saved at many different speeds.
- Auto-sync - Seamlessly syncs to your camera roll, so you don't have to individually import or save your photos and videos to your camera roll.
- Easy sharing - Uses iOS sharing, so you can seamlessly share to the apps already installed on your phone.
If you've got an iPhone, you can try Pix out by downloading it from the App Store now.
