  • Motorola has introduced additional camera enhancements in its latest 'g series' devices, going beyond Google Auto Enhance including enhanced night vision feature for moto g84 5G and some noteworthy camera improvements for moto g54 5G
  • Motorola has also introduced latest security patch on edge 40, moto g84 5G and moto g54 5G ensuring potential security from the hackers
 
Motorola, India's best 5G smartphone brand, is making photo editing effortless with Auto Enhance feature from Google Photos. This feature is now available exclusively in Motorola's camera interface on the new motorola edge 40 neo, motorola edge 40, moto g84 5G and moto g54 5G.

More than 93% of Motorola consumers effortlessly open the camera application and capture photos without any additional settings or post-capture editing. With that in mind, Motorola will add the Google Photos Auto Enhance algorithm into the camera software of the new motorola edge 40 neo, motorola edge 40, moto g84 5G and moto g54 5G. Users can toggle the Auto Enhance option in the camera's user interface to instantly enhance color and lighting after a photo is taken. Once applied, the AI-based algorithm adjusts the components of each photo, carefully analyzing the image and automatically improving white balance, exposure, highlights, shadows, contrast, saturation, and more.
 
The effect of Google Photos Auto Enhance is subtle yet impactful and the image processing will automatically happen in the background, so the user doesn't need to worry about missing the moment.

On top of it, Motorola smartphones use Google Photos as the native application for all photos and videos, automatically organizing them so they're searchable by the people, places, and things in them. This means users' photos and memories are always easy to find and share.
 
Apart from google auto enhance, Motorola has also rolled out camera enhancement in the latest g series devices. When capturing images or surveillance footage in low-light conditions, it's common for the images to exhibit a noticeable color cast, often skewed towards shades of green or blue. The moto g84 5G, now boasts of optimized night vision capabilities, delivering brighter, clearer night photos with more accurate colors. It also offers improvements in skin tones across various lighting conditions, prevents color cast issues in outdoor shots, and enhances facial sharpness for crisper photos.
 
Similarly, moto g54 5G has further strengthened its camera features, additionally including noise reduction in wide-angle shots and enhanced color accuracy. Moreover, this update brings HDR video support to third-party camera apps, enhancing video calling on various platforms. Existing users can easily access these benefits through update notifications or by manually checking for updates in device settings.
 
Motorola has also introduced the latest security patch to elevate the security of its devices. These updates will ensure safety from potential harm by hackers. The motorola edge 40, moto g84 5G, and moto g54 5G feature the latest Android security patch level as of September 2023.

Carrying forward its long-standing legacy of associating with progressive artists like Subodh Gupta, Anish Kapoor, Bharti Kher, Osheen Siva and Vikram Seth, Absolut Glassware announces an exciting new edition of Absolut Creative Commune. A band of visionaries taking a trip to the future through the artistic lens of Indio Futurism, Absolut Creative Commune is here to offer diverse IndoFuturist imaginations that challenge stereotypes, celebrate diversity and represent the idea of 'better together'.
 
Absolut Creative Commune explores the dynamic worlds of electronic music and visual design in a groundbreaking collaboration with Elsewhere in India, an internationally touring, audiovisual electronica collective about a future world where global cultures are taking new shape. Together, the two powerful platforms have curated a line-up of 5 emerging and established artists – Sachin Bhatt, Deepti, Ishaan Osheen, Parda Fash, Aditi Ramesh – who question the status quo with their collaborative work. Furthering Absolut's core philosophy of a progressive and colourless world, the artists will showcase fresh, experimental work around the theme of 'Building an open world through Indo Futurism'.
 
Absolut Creative Commune will be taking over Mumbai's Famous Studios on November 04 to create distinct day and night experiences. The day programme is curated by Kyoorius, an iconic design platform that seeks to empower and sustain the creative community in India. The line-up includes a fun, educative, multimedia conference on IndoFuturism; masterclasses by industry stalwarts such as Ayaz Basrai (co-founder of The Busride Design Studio); short presentations that will throw light on different practices and approaches to IndoFuturism, among other things. The night programme kicks off with an exhibition of Creative Commune commissioned works, followed by an electrifying audio-visual performance demonstrating an iteration of IndoFuturism on the dance floor. Artists Arjun Vagale, Elsewhere in India ft. Murthovic & Thiruda, Blurry Slur & Dreamstates, Anushka and Kibo will make the night memorable.
 
Pulkith Modi, Head of Marketing – International Brands, Pernod Ricard India, said, "Absolut Creative Commune celebrates the freedom and power of artistic expression. This year, in an exciting collaboration with Elsewhere in India, the platform is set to explore and showcase IndoFuturism as a creative zeitgeist! A new wave of Indian Futurism is rapidly taking over next-gen media and art platforms. Absolut Creative Commune is the perfect platform to experience this movement. It is the culmination of state-of-the-art technology, visual design, performance art and IndoFuturist visions that foster a colourless, open, inclusive and hopeful world that respects people and the planet."
 
Avinash Kumar, Elsewhere in India, said, "Elsewhere in India is a pioneer in the context of IndoFuturism and purposing new technologies such as Generative AI and gaming for cultural good. Absolut's imperative in building an open and diverse world deeply resonates with our work towards imagining a hopeful future for India. Curating and mentoring an inspiring collective of Indian talent for Absolut Creative Commune across the fields of animation, storytelling, electronic music and creative tech, to name a few, has been a privilege. The platform sets an example of how brands are willing to support indie artists. Emerging art forms need incubation platforms to prosper and catalysis platforms that can forge new connections, help fund exciting new work, harbour new connections and engage new audiences. Absolut Creative Commune pushes these outcomes as it facilitates provocative creative work; it challenges the status quo while staying relevant to the goal of creating a distinct identity for IndoFuturism."

The collaboration with Elsewhere in India is significant for Absolut Creative Commune as it brings alive 'The Absolut World' through free-flowing artistic expression, immersive experiences and high-energy electronic music. It further strengthens the brand's core values of freedom, self-expression and inclusivity for the future of the youth of India.
