OBS Background Removal is a free, open-source OBS Studio plugin that removes or replaces backgrounds in live video and portrait images without a physical green screen. It uses neural networks to identify foreground subjects and generate segmentation masks. Users can create transparent backgrounds or combine the filter with other OBS effects to display replacement images. The plugin also provides low-light enhancement to improve video captured in dim environments. Additional capabilities include depth-of-field effects and experimental segmentation of nonhuman objects. Its ONNX Runtime architecture supports CPU processing and compatible GPU acceleration. OBS Background Removal is designed for live streaming, video recording, and virtual presentations.
