AI for Video: A Complete Guide to Intelligence in Video Products: From Models and Inference to Computer Vision, Speech, Search, and Generative Video
Depth Anything gives a product depth from a single camera, so the question becomes which model size the target device can run. This volume covers Depth Anything within its computer vision section: monocular depth, segmentation and pose, model artifacts and quantization, and deployment topologies for on-device inference. Written by Nikolay Sapunov, CEO at Fora Soft.
