What is Blur Background
The Blur Background operation allows you to apply a blur effect to the background. It automatically detects the main object in the foreground and keeps it sharp while blurring the rest of the image.
The car plate category detects car plates in the image and blurs them. It allows you to automatically turn on privacy for your car shots.
Key Uses
Blur Background can be used for:
Creating Product Catalogs: Enhance product images by blurring the background, making the product stand out more clearly and appealingly in catalogs.
Uploading to E-commerce Platforms: Prepare professional-looking product images with a blurred background to meet the high visual standards of e-commerce platforms.
Posting to Social Media: Generate striking images for social media, where the main object remains sharp and the blurred background creates a visually appealing effect.

Type of Blur
Regular is for gaussian blur type. Creates an effect of laying a translucent material like vellum on top of the image background.
Lens is for lens blur type with linear focus. Mimics the blur applied to a photo when a wide aperture is used to achieve a narrow depth of field, so that the foreground objects stands out.
