This camera can capture afterimages of people with AI. It is possible to capture images as if a ninja had transformed into a shadow. Since AI is used to determine the person, no afterimages will be left on objects or animals other than the person. Afterimages can be added to videos that have already been shot, or afterimages can be added in real time. You can also choose to register the video with an afterimage in the photo library.

Sound Effects Board turns your phone into a real sound board. Tap a pad and the sound fires instantly โ€” no loading, no delay โ€” and it plays even on silent, so a prank never dies because your ringer switch was off. Meme, Prank & Funny Sounds are just the beginning. Browse 6,000+ professional sound effects across 17 categories โ€” Comedy, Gaming, Podcast, Action, Cinematic, Ambiance, Music, DJ, Loops, Stream Alerts, Reactions, Transitions, Halloween, Christmas and New Year. Air horn blasts, cartoon boings, buzzers, applause, movie-style booms and stream alerts, all one tap away. Fire up to four sound buttons at once and layer them: an air horn over a drum loop, laughter under a rimshot. 100 NEW SOUNDS EVERY MONTH This soundboard app doesn't stand still. A new themed pack lands every month โ€” Prank Kit, Streamer Essentials, Halloween Horror, Cinematic Trailer, Christmas, New Year Party โ€” 100 fresh sounds each, straight into your library.
