Demo: Adobe`s experimental `Cloak` tech is like Content Aware Fill for video
(Digital Photography Review)

Yesterday at Adobe MAX, the lucky attendees got to see a few of Adobe`s signature `Sneaks`: sneak peeks at crazy features that are in development. And chief among them this year was something code-named Adobe Cloak. In essence, Adobe Cloak is the video-editing counterpart to Photoshop`s Content Aware Fill. Simply outline the portion of your video that you would like removed-be it a stationary object or a couple walking through your scene-and Adobe Cloak will intelligently erase them from the shot. This is, of course, something VFX artists have been doing for ages, but automating the process to this degree is impressive to say the least. Adobe sent us a few demo videos of the feature in action, which you can check out above. And if you want more details about how Adobe Cloak works/was developed, Engadget got to sit down with Adobe research engineer Geoffrey Oxholm and VFX product manager Victoria Nece to talk about the technology, which is still `in the experimental stages.` The bad news is, there`s no current plans to implement it. The good news? They wouldn`t be working on it if they didn`t plan to implement it some time, right!?
