Xiaomi Mi 11 uses BlinkAI algorithms for its video night mode, here’s a demo

The Xiaomi Mi 11 is the first phone with the Snapdragon 888 chipset. Among other improvements, Qualcomm’s new chip boasts faster performance for AI applications with a total of 26 TOPS of number-crunching power (up from 15 TOPS on the S865).

This was leveraged by BlinkAI whose deep learning software powers the Night Mode in Mi 11’s video camera. Check out a demo below:

Traditional night modes use image fusion, which that can be slow as the sensor needs to capture several frames. BlinkAI’s algorithm uses a neural network to mimic how the human eye works and only needs one frame. This…
