Meta Releases Segment Anything Model 2 (SAM 2) with Video Support**\n- Meta AI unveiled SAM 2, a significant upgrade to its Segment Anything Model, now capable of real-time video instance segmentation with minimal user input. The model introduces a causal attention mechanism enabling online processing of video streams without requiring future frames. SAM 2 achieves 63.2% mask accuracy (mAP) on the YouTube-VIS 2023 benchmark, surpassing prior state-of-the-art models like Mask2Former by 5.1 points. The model is available under an open license with code and weights published on GitHub.\n- Source: [https://ai.meta.com/blog/segment-anything-model-2/](https://ai.meta.com/blog/segment-anything-model-2/)\n- 2. Google DeepMind Introduces Gemini Vision Pro for 3D Scene Reconstruction**\n\n## Analysis\nGoogle DeepMind launched Gemini Vision Pro, a multimodal extension of the Gemini family optimized for high-fidelity 3D scene understanding. The system uses a diffusion-based architecture to generate textured mesh models from monocular video input, achieving sub-centimeter accuracy in indoor environments. In tests on the ScanNet++ dataset, it reduced reconstruction error by 38% compared to NeRF-based methods. The model will be integrated into Google Earth Studio and ARCore later this year.\n\nSource: [https://deepmind.google/news/gemini-vision-pro-3d-reconstruction/](https://deepmind.google.com/news/gemini-vision-pro-3d-reconstruction/)\n\n**3.
