About SAM 2

SAM 2 (Segment Anything Model 2) extends Meta foundational segmentation capabilities from static photography into dynamic video streams. Built on a streaming memory architecture that conditions current frames on past interactive prompts, SAM 2 segments target entities in real time at over 40 frames per second.

Developers can supply point clicks, bounding boxes, or rough masks on any single video frame, and SAM 2 propagates precise pixel-level mask boundaries across the entire temporal sequence. The model family ranges from lightweight edge variants (SAM 2 Tiny and Small) up to frontier checkpoints (SAM 2 Large), supporting interactive video labeling, sports analytics, autonomous driving, and robotic visual grounding.

  • Unifies image and video segmentation under a single fast streaming memory architecture
  • Achieves real-time inference speeds exceeding 40 frames per second on modern hardware
  • Released under permissive Apache 2.0 licensing with pre-trained checkpoints from Tiny to Large
  • Rapid camera occlusion or extreme motion blur can require occasional mid-video correction clicks
  • Large model variants require dedicated GPU VRAM for multi-stream video pipelines
