Introducing Chaos AI Enhancer: Boost Visual Quality with AI in Enscape

We are excited to announce that an experimental new feature is now available in Enscape for active users: Chaos AI Enhancer.  🎉

Chaos AI Enhancer allows you to elevate the quality of your visualizations, specifically people and vegetation assets, within Enscape. It’s currently available with version Enscape 4.1 and above.

Leveraging AI to elevate Enscape assets

Realistic assets bring a project to life and help clients understand your design intent faster. 

Many of Enscape’s people and vegetation assets are produced in-house, keeping a strict budget of polygons that allows you to place multiple assets without experiencing a loss in performance.

With Chaos AI Enhancer, you can now export better-looking assets straight from Enscape. Our AI engine solution leverages the knowledge of the underlying scene to ensure superior results compared to other AI-generated images. Speed up your workflow, focus more on designing, and let AI elevate your visuals.

How to use Chaos AI Enhancer in Enscape

Chaos AI Enhancer has been added to the Enscape UI, with a new button now visible on the renderer toolbar. To access Chaos AI Enhancer, you must be logged in with a non-trial license.

If the button is grayed out, you simply need to log into your account and add your license key in the Enscape Account window. A tooltip will remind you of this step.

In this initial version, Chaos AI Enhancer primarily focuses on improving people and vegetation assets. While AI processing may sometimes produce unwanted artifacts, we are working on perfecting this feature, and future updates will introduce advanced masking features to mitigate these issues.

Right now, adding details to your renderings with AI is similar to creating a screenshot. The enhanced images are automatically saved to your download folder, providing a hassle-free experience. The processing time, however, depends on the scene size, and it might take a few minutes while Enscape is blocked. You have the option to cancel the operation if needed, ensuring a smooth workflow. Please note there is a cap of 10 images per hour and 60 images per day.

Your feedback fuels innovation

Since this new feature is in development, we are counting on your feedback at this stage. Your input will help us prioritize the next features for the Chaos AI Enhancer. Please share your experience and add your results to the related thread in the Enscape community forum
