AI Color from HMS Core Video Editor Kit Rejuvenates Old Photos - Huawei Developers

Since 1839 when Louis Daguerre invented the daguerreotype (the first publicly available photographic process), new inventions have continued to advance photography. Its spike reached a record high where people were able to record experiences through photos, anytime and anywhere. However, it is a shame that many early photos existed in only black and white.
HMS Core Video Editor Kit provides the AI color function that can liven up such photos, intelligently adding color to black-and-white images or videos to endow them with a more contemporary feel.

HUAWEI Camera Kit Provides Capabilities to Improve Camera Performance

A common plotline in wuxia dramas has a character gaining a huge boost in martial abilities after their energy flows become unblocked. Although these stories are fictional, HUAWEI Camera Kit can function as something like an energy flow that helps apps acquire new capabilities.
The camera performance of Huawei phones has received much praise from users, with some describing them as "professional cameras with phone features". For example, thanks to Huawei's proprietary Night mode, Huawei phones can take impressive photos even in low-light environments.

}
This is possible not only because of powerful hardware, but also Huawei's software algorithms. Huawei phones also support features such as HDR video and wide aperture for shooting in different scenarios.
The front camera can record video in HDR mode, which captures more detail in backlit or low-light environments.
Wide aperture mode can blur the background to make the subject stand out.
These are some built-in features of the Huawei phone system camera. Many third-party apps also provide photo and video capture. By opening its photography capabilities to developers, Huawei hopes to help give users a better experience in these apps.
As Android hasn't opened all capabilities and APIs to developers, third-party apps can use only its native interface for development. Consequently, the camera performance in third-party apps pales in comparison to the Huawei system camera. With Camera Kit, Huawei hopes to provide developers with easy-to-use APIs that they can utilize to provide a better user experience.
The Camera Kit SDK provides APIs for camera apps, which can be directly called by developers. Camera Kit also supports static compilation, and has a small size of 100k and excellent compatibility.
Photography capabilities at software-level are also integrated into Camera Kit, such as camera modes (e.g. wide aperture, figure, HDR video, and night modes), camera actions and parameters, and operation collections (such as preview, photo capture, recording, and analyzing), covering every step of the photographing process. In addition, Camera Kit supports quick development of extension within two hours, which can reduce the time and cost of app development. It takes just five steps to connect to Camera Kit—mode creation, mode configuration, mode operations, CallBack, and mode release—in order to acquire its multi-faceted camera capabilities.
With the help of Camera Kit, third-party apps on Huawei phones can utilize the features of the system camera, such as Night mode and Super slow-mo mode. Huawei hopes to work with developers in providing a better photography experience to customers.
