FirmTools have announced the release of FirmTools RedEyeBot, brand-new software
to remove the red-eye effect from digital pictures completely automatically.
Operating in batch mode, FirmTools RedEyeBot processes hundreds of images in
just minutes, providing full backup and restore capability.
FirmTools RedEyeBot allows removing red-eye automatically from a bunch of
digital pictures. The red-eye reduction tool scans the entire collection of
digital photos or any part of it, detecting and removing red-eye completely
unattended. Full backup and restore capability allows you to roll-back any image
to its original state with a single click.
The red-eye effect appears on film and digital photographs when taking pictures
of human faces in the dark with a built-in flash. The flash works too fast for
the pupil to close, causing the bright red reflection deep inside of an eye. The
red-eye effect causes people to look unnatural on photographs. Removing the
red-eye effect greatly enhances the appearance of faces in pictures.
It's no fun opening and editing each and every digital picture manually from the
hundreds of images shot with a flash. There are various tools on the market that
claim to reduce the red-eye effect, but the majority of these tools require
opening images one by one and selecting the areas that suffer from the red-eye
effect.
FirmTools RedEyeBot removes the hassle of manual red-eye reduction once and
forever! Processing hundreds of photographs is a matter of just minutes thanks
to the ability of FirmTools RedEyeBot to detect human faces and red eyes.
All images can be processed at once by specifying folders or selecting a set of
images for red-eye reduction. FirmTools RedEyeBot processes the selection
quickly and efficiently no matter how large it is!
Every once in a while, the original photograph makes you happier than the
corrected one. Even though this does not frequently happen, FirmTools RedEyeBot
backs up each processed image for easy one-click restoration. If the result is
not completely satisfactory, a simple click of a button returns the original
image.
For those who prefer manual control over the process, FirmTools RedEyeBot
provides an easy way to remove the red-eye effect by manually defining an area
that contains the red eyes. After that, FirmTools RedEyeBot processes the
selection and removes the red-eye within it automatically.

Photo Quote: In the absence of a subject with which you are passionately involved, and without the excitement that drives you to grasp it and exhaust it, you may take some beautiful pictures, but not a photographic oeuvre. - Brassai
