Turn any image into a depth map
Generate a detailed depth map from a single photo, tune it and download it as an 8-bit or 16-bit PNG. The model runs in your browser, so your images are never uploaded.
Your files stay on your device: they are processed in this browser tab’s memory and never uploaded.
The model (about 50–100 MB) downloads once and is cached by your browser. A GPU browser (recent Chrome / Edge) is much faster.
Ready for your 3D and motion tools
White means near and black means far, the convention used by ControlNet and most compositing setups. Switch to inverted or a colour view whenever a tool expects something else.
16-bit for smooth displacement
8-bit depth can show stair-steps when used as displacement. The 16-bit grayscale PNG keeps 65,536 levels, so surfaces stay smooth.
FAQ
Is it metric depth?
No. The model estimates relative depth: what is nearer and what is farther, not distances in metres.
Why is the first run slow?
The model downloads once (about 50–100 MB) and is then cached by your browser. A browser with GPU support, such as recent Chrome or Edge, is much faster.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. The model runs on your own device.
What can you do with a depth map?
Motion designers drive parallax and 2.5D camera moves in After Effects from a single still; 3D artists use the map as displacement in Blender and Cinema 4D; AI artists feed it to ControlNet to keep the composition of a picture; editors add depth-based fog, blur and colour grades to stills; and developers build 3D photo effects for the web.
