+
+This work presents Depth Anything V2. It significantly outperforms [V1](https://github.com/LiheYoung/Depth-Anything) in fine-grained details and robustness. Compared with SD-based models, it enjoys faster inference speed, fewer parameters, and higher depth accuracy.

+
+## News
+
+- **2024-06-14:** Paper, project page, code, models, demo, and benchmark are all released.
+
+
+## Pre-trained Models
+
+We provide **four models** of varying scales for robust relative depth estimation:
+
+| Model | Params | Checkpoint |
+|:-|-:|:-:|
+| Depth-Anything-V2-Small | 24.8M | [Download](https://huggingface.co/depth-anything/Depth-Anything-V2-Small/resolve/main/depth_anything_v2_vits.pth?download=true) |
+| Depth-Anything-V2-Base | 97.5M | [Download](https://huggingface.co/depth-anything/Depth-Anything-V2-Base/resolve/main/depth_anything_v2_vitb.pth?download=true) |
+| Depth-Anything-V2-Large | 335.3M | [Download](https://huggingface.co/depth-anything/Depth-Anything-V2-Large/resolve/main/depth_anything_v2_vitl.pth?download=true) |
+| Depth-Anything-V2-Giant | 1.3B | Coming soon |
+
+
+### Code snippet to use our models
+```python
+import cv2
+import torch
+
+from depth_anything_v2.dpt import DepthAnythingV2
+
+# take depth-anything-v2-large as an example
+model = DepthAnythingV2(encoder='vitl', features=256, out_channels=[256, 512, 1024, 1024])
+model.load_state_dict(torch.load('checkpoints/depth_anything_v2_vitl.pth', map_location='cpu'))
+model.eval()
+
+raw_img = cv2.imread('your/image/path')
+depth = model.infer_image(raw_img) # HxW raw depth map
+```
+
+## Usage
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/DepthAnything/Depth-Anything-V2
+cd Depth-Anything-V2
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### Running
+
+```bash
+python run.py --encoder <vits | vitb | vitl | vitg> --img-path <path> --outdir <outdir> [--input-size <size>] [--pred-only] [--grayscale]
+```
+Options:
+- `--img-path`: You can either 1) point it to an image directory storing all interested images, 2) point it to a single image, or 3) point it to a text file storing all image paths.
+- `--input-size` (optional): By default, we use input size `518` for model inference. **You can increase the size for even more fine-grained results.**
+- `--pred-only` (optional): Only save the predicted depth map, without raw image.
+- `--grayscale` (optional): Save the grayscale depth map, without applying color palette.
+
+For example:
+```bash
+python run.py --encoder vitl --img-path assets/examples --outdir depth_vis
+```
+
+**If you want to use Depth Anything V2 on videos:**
+
+```bash
+python run_video.py --encoder vitl --video-path assets/examples_video --outdir video_depth_vis
+```
+
+*Please note that our larger model has better temporal consistency on videos.*
+
+
+### Gradio demo
+
+To use our gradio demo locally:
+
+```bash
+python app.py
+```
+
+You can also try our [online demo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/Depth-Anything/Depth-Anything-V2).
+
+**Note:** Compared to V1, we have made a minor modification to the DINOv2-DPT architecture (originating from this [issue](https://github.com/LiheYoung/Depth-Anything/issues/81)). In V1, we *unintentionally* used features from the last four layers of DINOv2 for decoding. In V2, we use [intermediate features](https://github.com/DepthAnything/Depth-Anything-V2/blob/2cbc36a8ce2cec41d38ee51153f112e87c8e42d8/depth_anything_v2/dpt.py#L164-L169) instead. Although this modification did not improve details or accuracy, we decided to follow this common practice.
