Red chair in a room

Remove the chair

Let's build a workflow that removes the foreground object from an image. The pipeline:

• Generates an image using
  GenerateImage

  Generate an image.

  Example

  API Reference

  GenerateImage( prompt="hokusai futuristic supercell spiral cloud with glowing core over turbulent ocean", store="hosted", )

  Output

  { "image_uri": "https://assets.substrate.run/84848484.jpg" }
• Removes the background of the image using
  RemoveBackground

  Remove the background from an image and return the foreground segment as a cut-out or a mask.

  Example

  API Reference

  RemoveBackground( image_uri="https://media.substrate.run/apple-forest.jpeg", store="hosted", )

  Output

  { "image_uri": "https://assets.substrate.run/84848484.jpg" }
  , creating a foreground mask
• Erase content inside the mask using
  EraseImage

  Erase the masked part of an image, e.g. to remove an object by inpainting.

  Example

  API Reference

  EraseImage( image_uri="https://media.substrate.run/apple-forest.jpeg", mask_image_uri="https://media.substrate.run/apple-forest-mask.jpeg", store="hosted", )

  Output

  { "image_uri": "https://assets.substrate.run/84848484.jpg" }
• Fill in details using
  InpaintImage

  Edit an image using image generation inside part of the image or the full image.

  Example

  API Reference

  InpaintImage( image_uri="https://media.substrate.run/docs-klimt-park.jpg", mask_image_uri="https://media.substrate.run/spiral-logo.jpeg", prompt="large tropical colorful bright anime birds in a dark jungle full of vines, high resolution", store="hosted", )

  Output

  { "image_uri": "https://assets.substrate.run/84848484.jpg" }

First, initialize Substrate:

Generate an image using

Remove the background from the image, and turn the result into a "mask" (a black and white image). Without return_mask=True,

Erase the content inside the mask using

Here's a sample result from this pipeline:

res.get(image)

res.get(mask)

res.get(erase)

res.get(inpaint)
