San Jose, California – Adobe’s annual Max conference has showcased a series of exciting new developments in the company’s experimental technology previews. Among the highlights are eleven AI-powered prototype tools and features, including a video upscaler and Project Stardust, which enables easy editing of individual objects in photographs.
Adobe’s Sneak program serves as a platform to demonstrate upcoming technologies and gauge public interest in their potential. While not all Sneak previews make it to market, popular features like the Content-Aware Fill tool in Adobe After Effects have emerged from this program.
One standout innovation is Project Stardust, which automatically identifies and separates objects in an image, allowing users to move and manipulate them without the need for manual selection. The tool seamlessly fills in the background and even generates new assets to be incorporated into the image.
Another intriguing demo is Project Primrose, showcasing the application of “flexible textile displays” in fashion. This interactive dress features programmable screens that allow wearers to display patterns and images on their clothing, expanding the possibilities for personalized style.
Adobe’s Project Poseable introduces a breakthrough in AI-based image generation models. This tool enables the integration of posable 3D models with text-to-image generators, providing users with the ability to influence final image results by posing 3D characters through 2D reference images.
Project Dub Dub Dub presents a remarkable AI audio feature that can automatically translate voice recordings or video audio tracks into various languages while retaining the original speaker’s voice. This technology streamlines the process of dubbing and eliminates the need for external translation services.
Lastly, Project See Through offers a simplified method for removing reflections in photos taken through windows. It reduces the need for manual cleanup, making it a potential valuable addition to programs like Photoshop or Adobe Express.
These innovative developments showcased at Adobe Max demonstrate the company’s ongoing commitment to pushing boundaries in creative technology. While not all of the Sneak previews may come to fruition, they offer a glimpse into the future possibilities of Adobe’s products.
