The AI capability in the Eye Contact feature on NVIDIA Broadcast intelligently and intelligently reads the eye movements of people in front of the camera while still showing true-to-life eye blinks.
Nobody will be able to notice this, because the AI in the Eye Contact feature makes the user’s eyes look very natural. Likewise with the movement from the actual eye gaze to the Eye Contact effect in action.
The Eye Contact feature will be very helpful for content creators because they can maintain eye contact with the audience, while still doing other activities in front of the camera.
Vignette and Virtual Background Effects
These two features are said to be similar to the filter effect on Instagram. Vignette is to give a stronger color effect to broadcast videos. Here, the AI capabilities of Background Blur are also added, presenting a bokeh effect so that the focus on the people in the video becomes stronger.
NVIDIA has also made improvements to the Blur, Replacement, and Removal Virtual Background effects to provide segmentation and stability for AI performance in making decisions.
For example, when using Virtual Background mode, the AI in NVIDIA Broadcast will intelligently take care that no original background suddenly appears on the screen due to imperfect virtual background effects.
NVIDIA Broadcast now also features features that have been requested by the community, namely mirror effects and taking screenshots directly from the webcam. All of these features can be checked in the Camera section.
NVIDIA Broadcast Can Be Integrated into All Applications
Not only for broadcasters or live streamers, NVIDIA Broadcast updates can also be integrated by developers into their applications relying on a software development kit (SDK) called Maxine.
The Maxine SDK from NVIDIA Broadcast already contains the latest features that were also announced at CES 2023, including the features mentioned above. NVIDIA opens cooperation and consulting for developers who want to integrate NVIDIA Broadcast features into their applications.
