US chipmaker Advanced Micro Devices said on Friday it will invest around $400 million in India over the next five years and will build its largest design center in the tech hub of Bengaluru. AMD’s announcement was made by its Chief Technology Officer Mark Papermaster at an annual semiconductor conference that started Friday in Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s home state of Gujarat.

MIUI 12 Camera Magic Clone feature comes to Chinese beta builds, check details

MIUI 12 was recently launched globally and it is set to come to many Xiaomi, Redmi, and Poco devices starting June 2020. The update has a lot of changes in the aesthetic and privacy area. However, that’s not all. The new also features a redesigned camera interface. A recent Chinese beta of MIUI 12 revealed that the new camera app will also bring the Magic Clone feature we saw on the MI 10 Youth Edition.

The Chinese beta build 20.5.18 has a new feature for all supported devices. Provided a steady hold and a steady background, the feature allows users to click a subject up to four times in the same picture to create virtual clones of them. This requires the subject to move across the viewfinder, where he/she is tracked with virtual grids.

Note that the feature currently only works with human subjects and results with other subjects are inconsistent. Your pet likely won’t be detected in the app’s algorithms to be cloned. Also, you will still need another user to manually press the shutter button to capture the subject in various positions.

The MIUI 12 camera Magic Clone feature isn’t the easiest to use to its fullest. You still need a super steady background and equally steady hands to make a good shot. A tripod will be required for the best results. Moreover, the subject must move slowly and make sure his/her body parts don’t get superimposed. The feature is certainly fun but could be a little extra handy for social media content creators and influencers.
