Adobe Project Indigo is a new photo app from former Pixel camera engineers

Adobe has released a new free camera app called Project Indigo that was designed by former Pixel camera engineers and combines computational photography with experimental AI features.

The project combines the computational photography techniques that engineers Marc Levoy and Florian Kainz popularized at Google, with pro controls and new AI-powered features. In their announcement of the new app, Levoy and Kainz style Project Indigo as the better answer to typical smartphone camera complaints of limited controls and over-processing. At Google, Kainz and Levoy were often credited with popularizing the concept of computational photography, where camera apps rely more on software than hardware to produce quality smartphone photos.
