IC- Light: Relighting Photos with AI

Relighting model, based on IC- Light which stands for "Imposing Consistent Light", is an AI tool that allows you to manipulate the lighting in your photos. It uses deep learning to analyze the image and then relight it according to your specifications.

Relighting allows you to specify your desired lighting using simple text prompts. Functioning as a text-conditioned relighting model, you can instruct the AI to adjust the lighting direction (left, right, top, bottom) to create dramatic shadows, add warmth, or achieve a bright and airy feel within your photos. It ensures that relit images retain a natural and believable appearance. This translates to seamless integration with the existing light within the image, eliminating awkward transitions and unrealistic shadows.
