| Measured fixture results | Tested scale: 4× | Tested scale: 2× |
| Fixture findings | The 4× upscale remains smooth and clean, achieving 26.89 dB PSNR and 0.8867 SSIM with legible main sign text, though fine high frequencies are smoother than generative diffusion models. | Enhanced texture but rewrote small text in this fixture; take care when exact lettering matters. |
| Original historical observation | Uploaded 512×512 anchor image; selected By Dimensions mode setting target to 2048×2048 (4.0x upscale). Client HTML5 Canvas rendered deliverable in 3.41 seconds, achieving 26.89 dB PSNR, 0.8867 SSIM, and 15.07 dB plate PSNR. Deliverable remained clean and smooth; direct Base64 PNG download. | PSNR=23.64dB · SSIM=0.7771 (2x 1024×1024 unwatermarked PNG); high hf_ratio=0.6486 makes the 'REALTEST 2026' wooden sign and brass robot look ultra-detailed, but because Krea uses a generative diffusion model (realisticv51, denoising=0.4), the small bottom-right calibration plate text 'REALTEST 2048px GT' is hallucinated into 'AFAL I SOT 20110pss OT' (plate_psnr=14.30dB). |
