[Microsoft AI Feature] Windows Studio Effects Introduction
Windows Studio effects are a collection of features designed to present yourself in the best light. Windows Studio effects are enabled by machine learning algorithms, and will require a NPU (Neural processing unit). Here's explanation of what they are:
Background effects: Effects such as background blur.
Standard Blur - A simple gaussian blur effect.
Portrait Blur - A subtle bokeh-style blur effect. Depending on device capability, it may be subtle, or a depth-based blur.
Eye contact: An effect to compensate for eyes looking at the screen instead of the camera.
Standard - Subtle correction for a device user looking down from the camera to the screen. *Does not adjust the left or right movement of the eyes.
Teleprompter - More aggressive correction for a customer scanning their eyes all around the screen as they read teleprompter content.
Automatic framing: Detects a person in the camera field of view and crops/zooms to keep them framed.
Portrait light: Improve the quality of lighting on the person in the video in a poorly lit environment, remove strong screen light reflection.
Creative filters: Video filters to add some fun and flare.
Voice Focus: A microphone effect designed to filter out background noise, ensuring that your voice comes through clearly during video calls.
