Adobe MAX 2026 Sneaks preview 10 experimental creative tools

At its November 11 MAX Sneaks session in Miami, Adobe showed ten research prototypes for working with images, video and sound. Deep Brush uses the shape and lighting of a surface to guide brush strokes, while Sight Span lets a creator explore an environment from a single image. Adobe opened trials of Deep Brush and Hands On in its Labs Playground. Compare Adobe’s research overview with reporting on the demonstrations and how the controls work.
