Imint launches video enhancement solutions for the consumer wearables market
Summary
Imint’s Selfie Mode and Infinite Horizon Correction solutions, as well as other technologies within the Vidhance platform, address the inherent challenges of keeping a wearable device steady when capturing or recording video. In addition, Imint and Qualcomm collaborated to optimise the solutions for the Snapdragon W5+ and W5 Gen 1 platform at a system level to significantly reduce power required to process video. “As technology advances, consumers will naturally come to expect better performance from their wearables, including the ability to shoot exceptional-quality video recordings,” stated Imint CTO Johan Svensson. “By reengineering our flagship Selfie Mode and Infinite Horizon Correction solutions – originally designed for smartphones – now for consumer wearables and optimised for Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon W5+ and W5 Gen 1 platform, users can record live images with exceptional clarity and realism without the struggle of keeping their wearable device stable all at lower power.” Imint’s Selfie Mode for consumer wearables combines artificial intelligence and facial recognition to help ensure a user stays in-frame when video chatting, recording selfie videos for social media, and more. With Vidhance Selfie Mode, software detects the user’s face and applies algorithms to track its movement and reposition it within the frame, even in low-light conditions.
