An OBS Studio plugin that removes and replaces the background in portrait video using ONNX-based machine learning segmentation, acting as a virtual green screen. It also supports low-light enhancement and depth-of-field effects.
Use cases
- remove background from webcam without a green screen
- replace background while streaming on OBS
- blur or replace background in video calls
- enhance low-light webcam footage
- apply depth of field effect to portrait video
- segment any object from video background
When to choose
- you stream or record with OBS Studio and need a virtual green screen
- you want GPU-accelerated background segmentation via ONNX Runtime
- you need low-light enhancement or depth-of-field effects in OBS
When to avoid
- you don't use OBS Studio for recording or streaming
- you need background removal in a different app like Zoom or Teams
- your hardware can't run real-time ML inference
