Researchers looking for a solution to build real-time, multimodal AI applications that require low-latency voice and video interactions
About Gemini Live API
The Gemini Live API is a preview feature that enables low-latency, bidirectional voice and video interactions with Gemini. It allows end users to experience natural, human-like voice conversations and provides the ability to interrupt the model's responses using voice commands. The model can process text, audio, and video input, and it can provide text and audio output. New capabilities include two new voices and 30 new languages with configurable output language, configurable image resolutions (66/256 tokens), configurable turn coverage (send all inputs all the time or only when the user is speaking), configurable interruption settings, configurable voice activity detection, new client events for end-of-turn signaling, token counts, a client event for signaling the end of stream, text streaming, configurable session resumption with session data stored on the server for 24 hours, and longer session support with a sliding context window.

Gemini Omni Flash
Gemini Omni is Google’s new model family where Gemini’s ability to reason meets the ability to create, starting with video. The first model in the family, Gemini Omni Flash, can create anything from any input by combining images, audio, video, and text as input, then generating high-quality videos grounded in Gemini’s real-world knowledge. It gives users an easier way to edit video through conversation, where every instruction builds on the last, characters stay consistent, physics hold up, and the scene remembers what came before. Users can transform specific details or entire worlds, reimagine action, add new characters or objects, change environments, adjust camera angles, refine styles, and build multi-turn edits without losing the thread of the original scene. Gemini Omni is designed to bridge photorealism and meaningful storytelling by reasoning about what should happen next, using an intuitive understanding of forces like gravity, kinetic energy, and fluid dynamics.
