Locara

video-to-video

HF group: Computer Vision · Status: ❌ not built

What it is

Video → transformed video (style transfer, frame interpolation, super-resolution, slow-mo).

Open-weight models

ModelParamsReleasedLicenseQualityNotes
RIFE / FILM5-50 M2022-23Apache-2.0Frame interpolationReal-time.

Infrastructure required

Inference

  • ❌ Frame-by-frame inference for non-diffusion variants (RIFE, ESRGAN-Video).
  • ❌ Diffusion runtime for AnimateDiff.

Input

  • ❌ Video input pipeline (decode frames, demux audio).

Output

  • ❌ Video file save (re-encoded).
  • Long-running task with progress.

Storage

  • ❌ Weights cache.
  • Output: fs.user-folder.

Interaction (IPC + SDK)

  • video.transform({ path, op }) IPC with progress.

Capabilities (manifest)

  • capabilities.fs.user-selected, capabilities.fs.user-folder.
  • capabilities.models[].

Gaps

All of the same shared rails as other video modalities — video I/O pipeline, long-running task IPC, optional diffusion runtime.
