Sony Interactive Entertainment has announce<\/a>d that it has acquired the UK-based machine-learning and computer vision company Cinemersive Labs, in part to help “enhance gameplay visuals.”<\/p>\n

The company was founded in 2022 and developed a “Cinemersive AI” technology that is capable of transforming a photo into a “volumetric 3D experience.” You can see this in action on the company’s website.<\/a><\/p>\n

When the deal closes, Cinemersive Labs will join SIE’s Visual Computing Group. This unit is responsible for “advancing state-of-the-art visual computing within games.”<\/p>\n

“This includes applying machine learning to enhance gameplay visuals, improve rendering techniques, and unlock new levels of visual fidelity for players,” SIE said.<\/p>\n

Financial terms of the acquisition were not disclosed. This came after Sony announced that it was shutting down Bluepoint Games<\/a>, the developer of acclaimed remakes and other projects. Sony also recently closed Dark Outlaw Games<\/a>, the incubation studio founded by a former Call of Duty developer.<\/p>\n

Sony is making these moves ahead of the launch of the PlayStation 6<\/a>, a console that has not been officially announced. Microsoft, for its part, already announced its next console, Project Helix. <\/a><\/p>\n
