Remember when the Pixel 3 and 3XL launched? Even though Night Sight stole the show from the event, Google announced a cool (and especially useful) set of camera features for phones as well; One of those features is the Pixel Camera’s Photobooth option, which automatically takes selfies when you make a funny face or smile a lot… you know, things like that.
Pixel 3 now automatically takes selfies when you kiss someone
Now Google has added “AI Kissing Detection” to the Camera app in Pixel’s Photobooth mode. Basically, your smartphone now automatically takes selfies when you kiss someone.
So if you’re trying to capture a moment with your significant other, the Pixel Camera has never been easier.
However, according to Google, simplifying things was rather difficult. Since people usually don’t look at their cameras when they kiss someone, and even their eyes may be closed, Google can’t train camera AI the way it would smiles or smiles. goofy faces. To do this, Google actually created another template for the camera app to detect when people kiss in the frame.
According to the Google Blog, in which the company explains how to use Photobooth as it does, the text of frame indicates the facial expression quality and kiss score.
Additionally, the AI ​​also emphasizes foreground expressions rather than the background. She clicks on the image when the AI ​​finds a good overall score for the image. However, it also keeps a short image buffer, and if it finds an image that looks better than the one it clicked, it will replace it on its own, so you’ll get the best kiss photo ever. .
The Photobooth feature is now available in Pixel 3, so if you have a Pixel 3 or Pixel 3 XL, you can go ahead and click through all of those kissing images with your partner that were previously a lot more work.
