Microsoft Pix
- Not to be confused with Microsoft's PIX, a debugging tool for DirectX
Microsoft Pix is a camera phone application developed by Microsoft Research for iOS.
Microsoft Research announced Pix in July, 2016, calling it an "intelligent camera app".[1][2] It is built in part on technology originally developed for Photosynth.[3]
Its features include:[4]
- Combining photos from before and after the shutter button is pressed. Normally it captures ten frames, selects the three best, and combines those to reduce noise.[1]
- Focusing on objects of interest.
- Adjusting settings automatically for faces.
- Document capture, including business cards.[5]
- Stylizing.
- Video stabilization and time-lapse.
- Short, looping videos.
- Creation of comix.
