This work presents Depth Anything V2. It significantly outperforms V1 in fine-grained details and robustness. Compared with SD-based models, it enjoys faster inference speed, fewer parameters, and higher depth accuracy.

News

• 2024-06-22: We release smaller metric depth models based on Depth-Anything-V2-Small and Base.
• 2024-06-20: Our repository and project page are flagged by GitHub and removed from the public for 6 days. Sorry for the inconvenience.
• 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
Depth-Anything-V2-Base	97.5M	Download
Depth-Anything-V2-Large	335.3M	Download
Depth-Anything-V2-Giant	1.3B	Coming soon

Usage

Prepraration

git clone https://github.com/DepthAnything/Depth-Anything-V2
cd Depth-Anything-V2
pip install -r requirements.txt

Download the checkpoints listed here and put them under the checkpoints directory.

Use our models

import cv2
import torch

from depth_anything_v2.dpt import DepthAnythingV2

DEVICE = 'cuda' if torch.cuda.is_available() else 'mps' if torch.backends.mps.is_available() else 'cpu'

model_configs = {
    'vits': {'encoder': 'vits', 'features': 64, 'out_channels': [48, 96, 192, 384]},
    'vitb': {'encoder': 'vitb', 'features': 128, 'out_channels': [96, 192, 384, 768]},
    'vitl': {'encoder': 'vitl', 'features': 256, 'out_channels': [256, 512, 1024, 1024]},
    'vitg': {'encoder': 'vitg', 'features': 384, 'out_channels': [1536, 1536, 1536, 1536]}
}

encoder = 'vitl' # or 'vits', 'vitb', 'vitg'

model = DepthAnythingV2(**model_configs[encoder])
model.load_state_dict(torch.load(f'checkpoints/depth_anything_v2_{encoder}.pth', map_location='cpu'))
model = model.to(DEVICE).eval()

raw_img = cv2.imread('your/image/path')
depth = model.infer_image(raw_img) # HxW raw depth map in numpy

Running script on images

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:

python run.py --encoder vitl --img-path assets/examples --outdir depth_vis

Running script on videos

python run_video.py \
  --encoder <vits | vitb | vitl | vitg> \
  --video-path assets/examples_video --outdir video_depth_vis \
  [--input-size <size>] [--pred-only] [--grayscale]

Our larger model has better temporal consistency on videos.

Gradio demo

To use our gradio demo locally:

python app.py

You can also try our online demo.

Note: Compared to V1, we have made a minor modification to the DINOv2-DPT architecture (originating from this issue). In V1, we unintentionally used features from the last four layers of DINOv2 for decoding. In V2, we use intermediate features instead. Although this modification did not improve details or accuracy, we decided to follow this common practice.
