Project Indigo

I was listening to MacBreak Weekly and there was a discussion about Adobe’s Project Indigo.

I went to the website and it looked really interesting in what they were trying to achieve with the app. They describe it as a computational photography camera app

The app takes multiple images which can then reduce imaging noise or add more detail.

At left is a single-image photo taken by an iPhone under 1/10 lux illumination. (It’s so dark you couldn’t find your keys if they dropped on the floor!) At right is a handheld photo taken by Indigo, which has captured and merged 32 images (sometimes called frames) to reduce imaging noise.

I thought to myself I would like to try this app, and after installing it on my iPhone, found that my phone wasn’t compatible. 

So, I need a new phone…

In the meantime check out the article and see actual full size images created by Project Indigo.
