This is Real-Time In-Camera Beauty Retouching

Think modern day Photoshop beauty retouching is impressive? In the future, your professional-grade camera might be able to retouch subjects for you in real-time. Here’s a 30-second video that shows this technology in action.

The demo shows a woman in the frame with eye and cheek adjustment sliders available. After significantly reducing the size of her lower jaw, the woman moves and looks around to show how well the real-time retouching can track her.

This video was shared by Jason Zhang, the founder of the Z CAM line of cameras. Based out of Shenzhen, China, Z CAM’s E1 became the world’s smallest Micro Four Thirds interchangeable lens mount 4K camera when it was launched in 2015.

“Yes, this is the new virtual reality,” Zhang writes.

“Built-in real-time facial beauty feature,” Z CAM writes. “Do you want it in [the] Z CAM E2?”
