Artificial intelligence is powering some of the biggest advancements in smartphone photography – and mirrorless cameras could be next. A London and New York-based startup called Camera Intelligence has just announced a successful first round of funding that it plans to use to create a Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera that uses AI for everything from voice control to in-camera edits.
On Tuesday, September 2, Camera Intelligence announced a $2 million (£ 1.49 million / AU$3.07 million) seed funding round that will help accelerate the startup's development of an AI-native camera. In an early demonstration, CEO Vishal Kumar demonstrated using voice control to ask the camera to edit the colors, switch from video to photo mode, and take a photo on a two-second timer.
