ArcSoft demos new embedded digital photo software

The company debuted new software to provide more functionality for manufacturers aiming to offer consumers ways to display their digital photography.

Several of the new functions in the platform revolve around its FaceTracking technology. For example, the software will use the face to intelligently rotate the picture to the correct orientation. It will also be able to zoom and pan across faces on the picture using that same technology.

The platform will also be able to automatically remove red-eye from pictures, and gain the ability to decode RAW files, the high-quality native format of many high-quality digital cameras and SLRs.

Finally, in a touch of flair, the images will transition using a page-turning effect, which would smooth the transition between two photos and add a 'realistic' feel, the company said.
