Intelligent Adaptive Filtering
Character's simple user interface doesn't mke it obvious what is going on under the hood but apparently it uses Noveltech's Intelligent Adaptive Filtering (IAF) technology.

In use it is very simple to use, just select the appropriate mode, dial in some character and focus the processing on the desired area using the target control.
