This Python program produces a GIF that seamlessly transforms from the first to the second image when two different images are passed.

Usage

First you need to install RIFE ncnn Vulkan in your environment.
Release binaries for each OS are available in GitHub releases, so please download them.

Next, put the path to RIFE ncnn Vulkan in your .env file.

Copy the .env_sample with the name .env. Then specify the path.

cp .env_sample .env

Example setting .env:

RIFE_NCNN_VULKAN_PATH =./rife-ncnn-vulkan/rife-ncnn-vulkan

Then install the Python dependencies.
This project uses rye.

rye sync

Finally, run the following command to launch Gradio's Web UI.

python launch.py

Access to localhost:7860.

Google Colab

Now it still doesn't work correctly.

To use on Google Colab, execute the following command

!apt-get install -y libvulkan-dev

!git clone https://github.com/shinshin86/2img-to-gif.git
%cd 2img-to-gif

!wget https://github.com/nihui/rife-ncnn-vulkan/releases/download/20221029/rife-ncnn-vulkan-20221029-ubuntu.zip
!unzip rife-ncnn-vulkan-20221029-ubuntu

!echo "RIFE_NCNN_VULKAN_PATH =./rife-ncnn-vulkan-20221029-ubuntu/rife-ncnn-vulkan" > .env

!pip install gradio python-dotenv

!python launch.py --share

Special thanks

I came up with this program after learning about RIFE ncnn Vulkan.
