Today I tested Segment Anything Model (RX 6700 XT / 16 GB RAM)

SAM was developed by Meta and is a local FOSS AI model for image segmentation. It can detect objects in images and generate precise masks, making it possible to isolate people or objects from the background.

In my test, I automatically selected the largest detected mask, isolated it, and processed it further. This allows subjects to be separated quickly from the background for image editing, compositing, stickers, memes, or creative video effects.

Model used: sam_vit_h_4b8939.pth

SAM can be used for:
- Object cutouts
- Image editing & photomontage
- Video compositing & post-production

A newer version, Segment Anything Model 2, extends these capabilities and is especially designed for video segmentation, providing better temporal consistency across frames and more stable object tracking over time.

Video workflow:
- Recorded with OBS
- Edited in Kdenlive
- Transcoded with VAAPI (H.264)

No cloud, real hardware.
Everything runs on Linux, so anyone can set this up.
Works on CPU as well, but much slower.

Long-shot, but: Does anyone (possibly at Apple) know if there is an internal setting to turn off shadows on system windows? (macOS Sequoia)

Use case: I am green-screening my camera feed onto the screen (so the screen has a green background) and using that to overlay windows on my camera feed while streaming/recording. The shadows are picking up the green and making the green screen picture quality not as good as it could be as I have to constrain the parameters more than I would otherwise have to.
