Flexi Effects
Baselight supports a plugin effects mechanism called Flexi. Flexi is particularly suited to Machine Learning / Artificial Intelligence models running on the GPU, but can be used for traditional GPU or CPU image effects.
Flexi Effects are not included in the Baselight installer, as they are large files and do not change often. You can download Flexi Effects using the links below.
