Some of the coolest, groundbreaking stuff at MAX is shown in very raw form at Adobe’s Sneaks (last year they were called Sneak Peaks). This is where you get to see the type of things Adobe is doing R&D on straight from the engineers.

UPDATE: Looks like for the first time Adobe has put all Sneak videos online on AdobeTV here in HD!!

So listing all the YouTube videos aren’t necessary anymore, so I have gone ahead and removed them all. All the videos are really quite cool, however ActionScript developers will likely be interested in seeing:
- Reverse Debugging in Flash Builder.
- Monocle that demos the upcoming profiler and shows how powerful Telemetry is in providing internal data from the Flash Player.
- GPU Parallelism demoing ActionScript processes on the GPU. Thibault Imbert mentions in another MAX session that this example is part of a team looking into ways of expanding ActionScript language into new directions

Now the rest of the non-developer related Sneaks are really quite cool, but the following sneak of a Photoshop example of deblurring an image is just mind blowing and more so when you can see it in HD. It’s something that could literally change photography. While I imagine we will first see it in Photoshop CS6 or CS6.5, it’s the sort of feature that I hope makes it into more Adobe consumer products, as I can see it as something that people would pay for just that feature on it’s own.
