Google Photos now allows you to make advanced edits to HDR photos with less loss of quality. The news comes thanks to a new artificial intelligence model offered by the company.

For a long time, Google Photos has been able to change High Dynamic Range images in the editing menu. However, R.the result is often not the bestsometimes leaving it in captures more opaque, dull, or missing contrast.

With this new model Google promises better results with edited images. The technology tries to predict areas of the image that lack high dynamic range metadata and fills them with possible data.

Advanced editing tools like Magic Eraser, Trained to receive and return images in SDR (Standard Dynamic Range). Therefore, when HDR is applied to images, the results are almost “overlaid” and create an artifact in the final image.

Template provides better edits

With this new model, This problem tends not to occur anymore. Naturally, since it is a software solution, it is not perfect and the more information available in the capture, the better.

According to Google, the new model for image reconstruction weighs less than 1 MB and will integrate with Google Photos, compatible with Pixel 8 (or newer) mobile phones. Gigante das Buscas did not mention whether the new feature will be released for more devices.
