The CMR-M1 is a new camera that optimizes artificial intelligence technology -- creative technology agency SpecialGuestX develops it along with mixed media production company 1stAveMachine. The CMR-M1 is the world's first [AI-fuelled movie camera](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/melies) which is able to take raw footage and immediately turn it into a fantastical film. The namesake stands for Camera Model 1 and it is made with modern features.

The camera uses the iconic [AI art generator Stable Diffusion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mars-ai) to integrate filters while recording. The magic applies when CMR-M1 turns the images into bright visuals as the agency has trained five Stable Diffusion Low-Rank Adaptations each joined by a Style Card so that the camera can understand the footage with no contact. These cards allow users to edit clips and define the tech's strength within one device.
