Topaz Labs has released the latest version of its “AI” powered tool for upscaling images by up to 6 times. New features in version 5 include a new single image view preview mode; new ways to control the zoom level such as zoom to fit, a zoom slider, percentage input, and using the scroll wheel; updated and improved AI that now includes 2 models depending on the type of image, one for natural images such as portraits or nature, and another for man-made images such as architecture and typography.
Other improvements include better responsiveness when panning, informative warnings for problematic images to aid troubleshooting, a new auto-updater, an updated back-end CPU processing library, the ability to right-click to select preset zoom amounts, the ability to pan on both the original image and the preview image and many more improvements and fixes.
Gigapixel AI is currently on sale for $79.99 or available as part of a suite that includes Sharpen AI, Denoise AI, and JPEGtoRAW AI for $195.75. To learn more, visit Topaz Lab’s website.
I use this this to upres low res textures that often come with stock models. It is very good – highly recommended.
