Another clear example of this is when a model lifted a surgical mask to her face\u2014her skin darkens more in the Pixel 8 Pro video, whereas there isn’t as much of a swing on the Pixel 9 Pro. This also affects situations where you have multiple people of different skin tones together, and Koenigsberger says there should be fewer distortions in exposure.<\/p>\n

Analyzing photos captured at the scene, it wasn’t hard to discern the updates to the algorithm, especially with the luxury of having the models right in front of me. Even in normal lighting conditions, skin tones on the Pixel 9 Pro had a much closer match to the people in real life, in my eyes, over the Pixel 8 Pro. Koenigsberger says these are also due to broad changes in Google’s HDR+ imaging pipeline (more on this later), which enables the system to produce more accurate shadows and mid-tones.<\/p>\n

Another new change is also auto-white balance segmentation, and this process allows for separate auto-white balance exposures for people in the picture from their background. Before, you may have noticed some color seeping in from a setting, like blue skies producing a cooler tone to the skin. This new system helps \u201cpeople stay the way that they should look, separate from the background,\u201d Koenigsberger says.<\/p>\n
