AI-Powered Image Super-Resolution for macOS

HiPixel is a native macOS application for AI-powered image super-resolution, built with SwiftUI and leveraging Upscayl's powerful AI models.

✨ Features

• 🖥️ Native macOS application with SwiftUI interface
• 🎨 High-quality image upscaling using AI models
• 🚀 Fast processing with GPU acceleration
• 🖼️ Supports various image formats
• 💻 Modern, intuitive user interface

💡 Why HiPixel?

While Upscayl already offers an excellent macOS application, HiPixel was developed with specific goals in mind:

1. Native macOS Experience

   • Built as a native SwiftUI application while utilizing Upscayl's powerful binary tools and AI models
   • Provides a seamless, platform-native experience that feels right at home on macOS

2. Enhanced Workflow Efficiency

   • Streamlined interaction with drag-and-drop processing - images are processed automatically upon dropping
   • Batch processing support for handling multiple images simultaneously
   • URL Scheme support for third-party integration, enabling automation and workflow extensions
   • Simplified interface focusing on the most commonly used features, making the upscaling process more straightforward

HiPixel aims to complement Upscayl by offering an alternative approach focused on workflow efficiency and native macOS integration, while building upon Upscayl's excellent AI upscaling foundation.

🔗 URL Scheme Support

HiPixel supports URL Scheme for processing images via external applications or scripts. The URL format is:

hipixel://?path=/path/to/image1&path=/path/to/image2

Example usage in Terminal:

# Process a single image
open "hipixel://?path=/Users/username/Pictures/image.jpg"

# Process multiple images
open "hipixel://?path=/Users/username/Pictures/image1.jpg&path=/Users/username/Pictures/image2.jpg"

Example usage in AppleScript:

tell application "Finder"
    set selectedFiles to selection as alias list
    set urlString to "hipixel://"
    repeat with theFile in selectedFiles
        set urlString to urlString & "?path=" & POSIX path of theFile
    end repeat
    open location urlString
end tell

macOS 原生的 AI 图像超分辨率工具

HiPixel 是一款原生 macOS 应用程序，用于 AI 图像超分辨率处理，使用 SwiftUI 构建，并采用 Upscayl 的强大 AI 模型。

✨ 功能特点

• 🖥️ 原生 macOS 应用程序，使用 SwiftUI 界面
• 🎨 使用 AI 模型进行高质量图像放大
• 🚀 GPU 加速，处理速度快
• 🖼️ 支持多种图像格式
• 💻 现代化直观的用户界面

💡 为什么选择 HiPixel？

虽然 Upscayl 已经提供了一个优秀的 macOS 应用程序，但是 HiPixel 是为了特定的目标而开发的：

1. 原生 macOS 体验

   • 以原生 SwiftUI 应用程序的形式构建，同时利用 Upscayl 的强大二进制工具和 AI 模型
   • 提供一种无缝的、平台原生的体验，感觉就像在 macOS 上一样

2. 提高工作流效率

   • 简化交互，支持拖放处理 - 图像在放下时会自动处理
   • 支持批量处理，能够同时处理多张图像
   • 支持 URL Scheme，能够与第三方应用程序集成，实现自动化和工作流扩展
   • 简化界面，专注于最常用的功能，使得图像放大过程更加直接

HiPixel 旨在通过提供一种专注于工作流效率和原生 macOS 集成的替代方法来补充 Upscayl，同时建立在 Upscayl 优秀的 AI 图像放大基础之上。

🔗 URL Scheme 使用说明

HiPixel 支持 URL Scheme，用于通过外部应用程序或脚本处理图像。URL 格式如下：

hipixel://?path=/path/to/image1&path=/path/to/image2

在终端中的示例用法：

# 处理单张图像
open "hipixel://?path=/Users/username/Pictures/image.jpg"

# 处理多张图像
open "hipixel://?path=/Users/username/Pictures/image1.jpg&path=/Users/username/Pictures/image2.jpg"

在 AppleScript 中的示例用法：

tell application "Finder"
    set selectedFiles to selection as alias list
    set urlString to "hipixel://"
    repeat with theFile in selectedFiles
        set urlString to urlString & "?path=" & POSIX path of theFile
    end repeat
    open location urlString
end tell
