Task engine to process images in the cloud at scale
Pixellena is built on the task engine Tilemore, that runs in any cloud and uses spot instance capabilities in a convenient way for intensive media-processing tasks.
How: Add your image algorithm and use an API endpoint for Toilmore deployed in specialized infrastructure for you! Read more »
About the operations
Powerful image processing at your fingertips with a simple API
Control image quality
Pixellena allows you to perform image format conversion and optimization, while preserving image quality
How: For lossy images, it does line-search to find the encoded image that best approximates a given quality metric and threshold. Read more »
Focal Point Cropping
Focal point cropping gives you the ability to choose and fine-tune the point of interest of your image for better art direction.
How: Either provide coordinates for a focal point, or simply use one of the algorithms that we have to automatically detect the focal point. Read more »
Enhance
Produce up-scaled versions of images starting from a lower resolution image which is the best you have available.
How: We use Super Resolution GAN (SRGAN) as the enhancement algorithm. The motive of this architecture is to recover finer textures from the image when upscaling so that the quality cannot be compromised. Read more »
Three top-level stages
Pixellena’s main use case is to prepare an image for visualization in a browser. Basically, after the image is submitted, it passes through three top-level stages:
Step 3: Encoder
Convert to WEBP, JPEG, PNG, JPEG2000, or AVIF using encoding tools and quality parameters
