  • A passthrough for any video?

Schrock85 You are absolutely right.
Removing the background is one thing, quite easy.
The hardest part is how to place your segmented actor into a new background keeping lights, colors and all this stuff natural.

The problem is known as Image Matting
https://paperswithcode.com/task/image-matting#datasets

For now, we are trying a naive approach: segment actors -> replace the background, done. This is mostly to make an MVP and collect data.
Later we will probably try to spend some more time on this to make it a bit more natural by solving the Image Matting problem🙂

      xoxo let’s do some manual bg removal first and see how it goes.

        Schrock85 For a bg removal - the data is currently labelled by our data
        team for that task. The existing video matting models often give "blinking" artifacts as seen in forum and at greenscreen videos produced with hep of Capcut+manual corrections.
        Such artifacts are caused by out-of domain data and especially seen on certain poses (there is no artifacts on people standing straight, but some on doggystyle, for example).
        As for comment the greenscreen is only a way to enable passthrough mode, so "greenscreen reflections" are not a problem. The border refinement is a question of model, so it is solvable at good quality like here The tone/lights corrections based on passthrough enviroment is definetly a hard task but for now most users have quest2 where the passsthrough is black and white where such problem is not relevant

          There were some advances on ai - passthrough. So we want to share some of the models are into the developement for porn-specific passthrough. Here is comparison of our current custom approach for with background-removal vs one proposed by capcut. Despite there is dome work to go, there is significant progress on ai-passthroughand infrastructure for alpha-channel streaming

          and current model results on the same videos





            AlexSLRLabs i can tell the difference 👍👏

            I noticed vrpornnow recently pass through cut outs have improved a lot around the edges 👍

              Vrsumo2017 Hell, practically took out the dudes body

              That cap cut was fun to mess with, I tried it again and easily it took dudes body out, like in that pic and it leaves the stunt cock.

                We are an o way to release a new ai-generated passthrough:

                1. It will be streamed among with main video, so its possible to switch between PT and ordinary video mode without chromakey selection
                2. It will include a mode for the removal of a male person in POV videos as an experimental feature (currently work on a time lag during modes switch)

                  sletje Tried some existing software but finally stopped on in-house solution - custom trained neural network specifically for porn matting task. Since its still computationally expensive, the alpha for most videos will be precomputed on our servers and streamed. The limitation here is the resources - so like in case of scripts it may not be released for all videos at once, but likely in batches

                      AlexSLRLabs I subbed after reading this post. Very excited for this feature. When is it expected to be available?

                        Hey guys. I had a chance to get AI generated alpha channel for one of my compilations and you can check the quality of AI generated alpha here https://www.sexlikereal.com/scenes/alpha-passthrough-reverse-cowgirl-laying-down-v1-39136
                        As far as i know there will be an option to switch between having male body or go without male body.
                        This one is without the male body.
                        Such an AI generated alpha passthrough takes around 4 hour per 1 hour scene as for last time we checked, so it would be pretty easy to get passthrough for large amount of scenes.
                        The feature is almost ready to launch, so you can expect it very soon!

                        AlexSLRLabs im wondering if you're taking suggestions for the first batch of AI PT scenes that will be released?. Lmk if you have any or if i can share. do you think this feature comes mid jan?
