Version 16.1.1 introduced several performance-focused refinements:
: For users of the full ON1 Photo RAW suite, the Resize AI engine is fully integrated, enabling non-destructive upscaling within the standard editing browser. Market Position
: It identifies patterns like fur, feathers, and textures, filling in the gaps during upscaling to maintain organic sharpness. ON1 Resize AI 2022.1 v16.1.1.12258
marks a significant evolution in image upscaling, moving beyond traditional interpolation to leverage deep machine learning for photo enlargement. This version is designed for photographers who need to create large-format prints or recover detail from heavily cropped images without the pixelation or blurriness typical of standard bicubic scaling. Core AI Technology
: Users can print directly from the app, which includes specialized features like tiling (for oversized murals) and gallery wraps (to extend image margins for canvas stretching). Version 16
: The software utilizes GPU rendering to speed up real-time previews and the final export process, which is critical when handling the high computational load of AI upscaling.
Unlike its predecessor, Genuine Fractals, which used mathematical algorithms to guess pixel placement, uses state-of-the-art neural networks. It analyzes millions of examples from nature to "synthesize" new detail, effectively creating texture and sharpness that didn't exist in the original low-resolution file. This version is designed for photographers who need
: It functions as a plugin for Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom Classic, allowing you to send a file to Resize AI and return the enlarged version directly to your catalog or layers.
