DxO offers an AI Sensor Dust Removal System in DxO PureRAW 6, released in March 2026, that automatically detects and removes sensor dust marks from entire batches of RAW photos. The system runs locally on the user's computer and allows photographers to adjust how aggressively it searches for dust spots.

When a camera's image sensor accumulates dust, tiny dark spots appear repeatedly across photos, particularly visible in areas such as plain skies. The AI Sensor Dust Removal feature in PureRAW 6 analyzes RAW image files to detect these spots and remove them automatically across entire batches of images in seconds, without requiring the photographer to manually identify and clone-stamp each spot individually. Users can adjust a sensitivity threshold to control how aggressively the tool hunts for spots before processing. All processing occurs on the user's local machine.
