In summary, it's possible to conceive of a future visual medium based on a combination of the digital era and one's own perceptions, imagination, and desires. This can also be viewed from the perspective that scholars have described in relation to "cybernetics", namely a world view or methodology for understanding. Still, we can’t count out manual photo retouching services for some years to come. Replicating those results would still require further evolution of the neural networks.

1. Revolutionary Future Trends for
viewing and usage of digital images
Introduction
In the digital era that we live in, it is possible to imagine an entirely new kind of visual medium. One
where images are not just preserved for future generations but can be easily layered and commented
on, potentially bringing about a new artistic form and replacing manual photo retouching services in
long term. Such a transformative rendering of digital images would undoubtedly have a profound
impact on society.
Digitization has been ongoing for several decades and has created the world's largest repository of
images, videos, and music. As a result, there is now a global culture based on it. In the past decade
or so there has been an explosion in mobile access to digital image resources that enables people to
view and interact with images anywhere, anytime - in their personal computer, tablet, or smartphone.
What are the top 5 revolu-tion-ary future trends that can take us towards a new kind of visual
medium?
1) Augmented Reality (AR)
Cybernetics is about "adding" to the natural world. AR, a technology of either virtual environment or
extended physical world, is about "augmenting" the natural world. The basic idea behind AR is that
objects and information can be overlaid onto real-world environments. This could be really beneficial
when it comes to Real Estate Photo Retouching as well as e-commerce industry.
2) Augmented Vision (AV)
How can we capture and display the environment as it is experienced by humans? There are various
forms of vision, including sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch. In the future, we will be able to
digitally capture all these experiences in an integrated system. This will enable AV playback on a
large scale in the same way that we use today's audio technology.
2) Gestural Interaction

2. Gesture recognition has long been a research topic in various disciplines including, computer vision,
psychology, and cognitive science. Gestural interaction can be broadly defined as the recognition and
interpretation of gestures or sign language. It has been applied to many different fields such as
medical care, robotics, and entertainment.
3) Image Fusion (IF)
Image fusion is the process of combining two or more images into one image. This is normally
achieved by creating a weighted combination of the original images using some form of weighting
matrix. Light field rendering is closely related to image fusion, as it represents another form of "image
stacking"; however, light field rendering is normally considered to achieve a final high-quality image
whereas image fusion can be used at multiple stages during the creation of an image.
4) Image Tagging & Retrieval (ITR)
Instead of photos organized around location or people, imagine photos organized around the content
itself. That's the idea behind image tagging and retrieval (ITR). While it may seem like a simple idea,
the possible applications are endless.
5) Interactive Storytelling & Cinematography (IST)
It's also possible to take storytelling to a new level. An interactive storyteller is an agent in a story that
monitors the viewers' behavior and gives guidance, accordingly, making the experience more
enjoyable for them. It's a very powerful tool that can be used to control the viewers' perception of the
story and create something entirely new. Furthermore, cinematography will become more interactive
as well.
Conclusion
In summary, it's possible to conceive of a future visual medium based on a combination of the digital
era and one's own perceptions, imagination, and desires. This can also be viewed from the
perspective that scholars have described in relation to "cybernetics", namely a world view or
methodology for understanding. Still, we can’t count out manual photo retouching services for some
years to come. Replicating those results would still require further evolution of the neural networks.
