INTRODUCTION TO ZOOM & ENHANCE

• Our scientists have been working on the latest iteration in zoom and enhance technology for 14 years

• We have invested €700 million in making this technology market-ready

• Thank you to the Eppelheim and Düsseldorf teams for making this a reality

WHAT IS ZOOM & ENHANCE?

• Zoom & enhance allows us to make photos larger without reducing fidelity or quality

• Zoom: make a section of a photo larger

• Enhance: eliminate noise and maintain fidelity
