## Health v2 (maintenance only)
Score: 23/100 (v2, computed 2026-09-03T02:20:16.233290+00:00)
- activity 0, release rhythm 8, longevity 100
- inputs: {"age_days": 2389, "days_push": 1792, "days_rel": null, "gap_med": null, "n_releases_24m": 0}
- flags: none
- formula: round(0.45*activity + 0.35*rhythm + 0.20*longevity); archived -> min(score, 10)

## What it is
A browser-based demo that removes people from complex video backgrounds in real time using TensorFlow.js. It learns the static background of a scene over time so humans can be erased from the live webcam feed.

## Use cases
- remove people from a webcam video in the browser
- real-time background removal without a green screen
- privacy blur for video calls
- learn TensorFlow.js segmentation techniques
- erase humans from a live camera feed

## When to choose
- you want a fully client-side, real-time person removal demo in the browser
- you need a TensorFlow.js example to learn from or fork
- your scene has a mostly static background

## When to avoid
- you need production-grade portrait segmentation with moving backgrounds
- you need server-side or mobile-native performance
- you expect polished, actively maintained software - it is an experiment last released in 2021

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: maintenance
- function: machine-learning, computer-vision, image-processing
- domain: machine-learning, computer-vision, web-development
- platform: browser
