Using artificial intelligence (AI) to color and upscale videos over 109 years old into 4K 60fps videos
- Tram Ho
After successfully upscale a classic video up to 4K 60fps with artificial intelligence (AI) technology, YouTuber Denis Shiryaev decided to conduct another test.
This time Denis Shiryaev chose a famous black-and-white film, returning to the scenery of New York City in 1911. Denis Shiryaev uses neural networks to upgrade video quality to 4K, while increasing the speed Frames up to 60fps to create smooth video. Especially, AI also helps turn black and white film into color film.
Upscale footage for using Gigapixel AI technology from Topaz Labs and Google DAIN. Thanks to that, AI can analyze the movie and add more frames.
Original version of the movie:

And here is the upgraded and colored version:
Upscale version to 4K quality of the above video
Unlike previous short videos, this video of Denis Shiryaev is up to 8 minutes long and once again shows incredible quality. Of course there are still some points that are not really satisfactory if you deliberately look closely, which is the color.
But keep in mind, everything is automatic and the AI has performed so successfully, from frame rate, resolution to color.
