What is Body-Aware Crop?
Body-Aware Crop is an innovative feature in Crop.photo that allows for more granular and varied cropping based on various body markers. Unlike headless crops that focus solely on making the face unrecognizable, Body-Aware Crop can generate a wide range of crops using markers like 'Head to Knees,' 'Entire Person,' 'Lower Half Body,' 'Upper Half Body,' and 'Mid-Half Body.'

All the examples below use our Preview image to help you setup the crop.
For cropping specific body parts, markers like lower, mid, and upper body rely on advanced AI algorithms to identify key body landmarks such as shoulders, elbows, waist, and knees.
These landmarks are used to construct a bounding box around the targeted area. Your specified crop margins then define the actual crop area relative to this bounding box. Importantly, the crop settings automatically adjust based on the size of the model, ensuring a uniform crop regardless of the model's height or build.
