The world’s most powerful HDR photo editor, Aurora HDR has a new version out, the Aurora HDR 2019. With this new iteration, a lot many exciting features have been added to this popular HDR editing software.
Releasing on 4th October 2018, the latest version of Aurora HDR brings Skylum’s Quantum HDR Engine that harnesses the power of AI for a more streamlined editing experience than ever before. What makes this Engine unique yet intelligent is its capability to reduce burned-out colors, loss of contrast, noise and unnatural lighting caused by halos and unstable deghosting.

Skylum’s developers tested thousands of bracketed shots through a neural network, and used the results to develop the technology needed for creating incredible HDR photographs – whether it’s real estate, landscape, cityscape or any other type of HDR photography.
