DIAMANT-Film Restoration Suite

The DIAMANT-Film Restoration suite consists of several software components to deal with various restoration projects. They allow to organize the restoration work, define restoration jobs, real-time viewing, batch rendering and generating of automatic restoration reports. The Annotator is fully integrated into DIAMANT-Film Restoration which allows to prepare, estimate and document all restoration steps in reports.
