Adobe introduces a new tool to remove unwanted window reflections from photos
Using artificial intelligence, the tool separates two images: the reflection in the window and the scene on the other side. The AI model behind the Reflection Removal tool has been trained on a database of thousands of images without reflections.
Adobe has introduced a new experimental tool "Reflection Removal", which removes reflections and glare in photos taken through windows.
Using artificial intelligence, the tool separates two images: the reflection in the window and the scene on the other side. The AI model behind the Reflection Removal tool has been trained on a database of thousands of images without reflections. These images were combined and used to create millions of simulated reflection images.
At the moment, the tool only supports raw photos (DNG, CR2, and ARW). To use it with images, users need to open the Camera Raw plugin, go to the "Technology Previews" section in the settings panel, enable the "New AI Settings and Features Panel", and then restart the Adobe Photoshop or Adobe Bridge app.
The company plans to add support for JPEG and HEIC files, as well as other file types. Adobe also exploring ways to reduce small reflections on glasses and distant windows.
