Microsoft has released two new features with
today’s update to Microsoft Pix for iOS, an app powered by a suite of
intelligent algorithms developed by Microsoft researchers to take the
guesswork out of getting beautiful photos and videos.
The first of these features, Photosynth, helps
create photos that take in more of the perspective or scene you are
standing in front of, whether it is wide, tall, or both. It does this by
allowing you to freely pan and capture from side to side, up and down,
back and forth, and even go back to the start to include any parts of
the scene you may have missed.
“The idea came after some frustrations I had when trying to take a
picture of Snoqualmie Falls.
I didn’t want to have to choose which part
of the scene to capture, and I wanted it all with detail. Photosynth
means you no longer have to choose. I can now capture the whole scene in
a way that feels natural. As with all Pix features, we have also worked
to give the best image quality by introducing more intelligent ways to
compute exposure and stitching,” said Josh Weisberg, principal program
manager within Microsoft’s AI & Research organization in Redmond,
Washington.
