Automatic Make-Up Cameras

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Casio Exilim Zoom Z300 & Z250

— August 29, 2008 — Tech
Casio is rolling out an exciting ‘make-up’ feature in its new Exilim Zoom Z300 and Z250 cameras that is bound to be a big hit with the beauty obsessed consumers. The feature offers built in automatic photoshopping “makeup function to beautifully capture people’s faces.” No need to use photoshop anymore, simply set the make-up level (from 0 to 12) and you are ready to be on the cover of a magazine.

So what can you expect from using this function? Thanks to a processor dedicated to image processing (in addition to the standard processor), you will be able to instantly make the skin tone look softer and smoother, cover wrinkles and have an assortment of photoshopic functions applied, resulting in skin that looks “clearer, younger and more natural in the pictures.”

Casio believes that this make-up function will be so popular that they added a dedicated button to the EX-Z300 to easily acess this function.

Both the Exilim Zoom EX-Z300 (10.1 Megapixels) and the EX-Z250 (9.1 Megapixels) are launching on August 29.
Trend Themes

3. Makeup-level Customization - The creation of customizable makeup levels opens the door to increased experimentation, creativity, and user preference options for beauty enthusiast subcultures.
Industry Implications
1. Photography - Incorporating automated retouching features or dedicated image processors can be a game-changer for photography, which is a niche that continuously seeks to leverage technology to enhance its creative capacities.

3. Electronics - Incorporating these features into devices such as smartphones or tablets could lead to new and exciting user experiences, which may help create disruptive innovative solutions that challenge existing market positions.
