Do you have several blurry photos and want to restore some sharpness to your photos? Well know what was impossible yesterday seems to find answers today.
I introduce you SmartDeblur ! Although it won't solve all your problems, it would be worth trying.
Available for Windows and Mac OS allows you to remove blur from a photo. And it works with natural blurs linked to the absence of autofocus or movement (motion blur).
Stronger, SmartDeblur also allows you toeliminate or attenuate Gaussian blur, these effects created artificially by software to hide a person or a secret text.
Of course, the result is not up to the standards of “Miami Experts”, but we can already see what is in the photo.
The most impressive results were obtained with snapshots of texts. Completely illegible at the base, they rose sharply enough to be able to use them.
Of course you will have to tweak the different settings to get a convincing result. Fortunately the settings are visible almost immediately, no need to wait for the changes to be applied since they are made in real time.
How to remove blur from these photos with SmartDeblur?
First, download and install Smart Deblur. To do this, go to the official website, a demo version is available.
After installation, launch the program.
In Defect type, you can choose between 3 types of correction:
- Auto-detect Blur: motion blur
- Out of Focus Blur: blur out of focus
- Gaussian blur: Gaussian blur
This is actually the blur type. The first corrects lack of focus, the second addresses motion blur while the third will correct artificial Gaussian blur created by software.
To succeed in removing the blur, just open the image, choose the type of blur correction, and click Blur Analysis.
The software takes care of the image correction. So simple, SmartDeblur also has options so that you can correct the misfocus manually.
It's scary to think that this software can retrieve our data purposely blurry.
Finally, if you want to hide data on an image, it is better to darken it rather than blur it.
