# Depth Map Generation

Generate accurate depth maps from any image using each::sense. This skill extracts depth information from 2D images for 3D effects, parallax animations, VR/AR applications, computational photography, and more.

## Features

- **Monocular Depth Estimation**: Extract depth from single images
- **Portrait Depth Maps**: Precise depth for portrait photography effects
- **Landscape Depth**: Scene depth for panoramic and landscape images
- **Product Depth**: 3D-ready depth maps for e-commerce
- **Architectural Depth**: Building and interior depth analysis
- **3D Parallax Effects**: Depth data for Ken Burns-style animations
- **VR/AR Depth**: Real-time depth estimation for immersive experiences
- **Stereo Image Generation**: Convert 2D to stereoscopic 3D
- **Focus Stacking**: Depth-based focus plane selection
- **Background Blur**: Depth-aware bokeh and blur effects

## Quick Start

```bash
curl -X POST https://sense.eachlabs.run/chat \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "X-API-Key: $EACHLABS_API_KEY" \
  -H "Accept: text/event-stream" \
  -d '{
    "message": "Generate a depth map from this photo",
    "image_urls": ["https://example.com/photo.jpg"],
    "mode": "max"
  }'
```

## Depth Map Output Formats

| Format | Description | Use Case |
|--------|-------------|----------|
| Grayscale | 8-bit depth (white=near, black=far) | General purpose, visualization |
| Inverse Grayscale | 8-bit depth (black=near, white=far) | Some 3D software compatibility |
| Normalized | 0-1 range depth values | Machine learning pipelines |
| Metric | Real-world distance estimation | AR/VR, robotics |
