AI upscaling
AI upscaling increases the resolution of an image or video and adds believable detail, so small or blurry pictures look sharper when enlarged.
Also called image upscaler, super-resolution, AI image enhancer
In more detail
Ordinary resizing just stretches pixels. An AI upscaler has learned what sharp images look like and predicts the missing detail. Because the detail is invented, it can look convincing but differ from the real scene.
It is used to restore old photos, prepare images for print and improve low-resolution video.
