NVIDIA Canvas 

Key Features of NVIDIA Canvas

• NVIDIA Canvas uses AI to turn simple brushstrokes into realistic landscape images, allowing artists to create backgrounds quickly and speed up concept exploration.
• The application offers a variety of styles and materials to customize the image, including nine styles in Standard Mode, eight styles in Panorama Mode, and different materials such as sky, mountains, river, and stone.
• NVIDIA Canvas supports 360° panoramas, enabling artists to create wraparound environments and export them as equirectangular environment maps for use in 3D applications.
• Once the image is created, artists can import their work into Adobe Photoshop or other graphic design applications for further refinement or integration with other artwork.
• NVIDIA Canvas allows users to paint on different layers, keeping elements separate and making it easier to modify individual parts of the image.
