depixelated

Restored to clarity

Depixelated describes an image that has been processed to reduce or remove the blocky, mosaic-like appearance of visible pixels.

The term applies to enhancement techniques that smooth jagged edges and restore detail to low-resolution images: The depixelated photo revealed facial features that were previously unrecognizable.

Often used in forensic contexts or AI upscaling.
