A Flutter package that removes the background from images using an ONNX model.

Image Background Remover - Flutter

⌗ Overview

A Flutter package that removes the background from images using an ONNX model. The package provides a seamless way to perform image processing, leveraging the power of machine learning through ONNX Runtime. This package works completely offline without any external API dependencies

🌟 Features

• Remove the background from images with high accuracy.
• Works entirely offline, ensuring privacy and reliability.
• Lightweight and optimized for efficient performance.
• Simple and seamless integration with Flutter projects.
• Add a custom background color to images.
• Customizable threshold value for better edge detection.

🔭 Example

Getting Started

🚀 Prerequisites

Before using this package, ensure that the following dependencies are included in your pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  image_background_remover: ^latest_version

Usage

Initialization

Before using the removeBg method, you must initialize the ONNX environment:

    import 'package:image_background_remover/image_background_remover.dart';

    @override
    void initState() {
        super.initState();
        BackgroundRemover.instance.initializeOrt();
    }

Dispose

Don't forget to dispose the onnx runtime session :

  @override
  void dispose() {
    BackgroundRemover.instance.dispose();
    super.dispose();
  }

Remove Background

To remove the background from an image:

import 'dart:typed_data';
import 'package:image_background_remover/image_background_remover.dart';

Uint8List imageBytes = /* Load your image bytes */;
ui.Image resultImage = await BackgroundRemover.instance.removeBg(imageBytes);
/* resultImage will contain image with transparent background*/

🆕 New Feature: Add Background Color

You can now add a custom background color to images after removing the background.

Usage:

Uint8List modifiedImage = await BackgroundRemover.instance.addBackground(
  image: originalImageBytes,
  bgColor: Colors.white, // Set your desired background color
);

API

Methods

Method	Description	Parameters	Returns
initializeOrt()	Initializes the ONNX runtime environment. Call this method once before using removeBg.	None	Future<void>
removeBg(Uint8List imageBytes, { double threshold = 0.5, bool smoothMask = true, bool enhanceEdges = true })	Removes the background from an image.	imageBytes - The image in byte array format. threshold - The confidence threshold for background removal (default: 0.5). A higher value removes more background, while a lower value retains more foreground. smoothMask - Whether to apply bilinear interpolation for smoother edges (default: true). enhanceEdges - Whether to refine mask boundaries using gradient-based edge enhancement (default: true).	Future<ui.Image> - The processed image with the background removed.
addBackground({required Uint8List image, required Color bgColor})	Adds a background color to the given image.	image - The original image in byte array format. bgColor - The background color to be applied.	Future<Uint8List> - The modified image with the background color applied.

⛔️ iOS Issue

Exception: ONNX session not initialized (iOS Release Mode & TestFlight)

To resolve this issue, update the following settings in Xcode:

Open Xcode and navigate to:
Runner.xcodeproj → Targets → Runner → Build Settings

Under the Deployment section:
Set "Strip Linked Product" to "No"
Set "Strip Style" to "Non-Global-Symbols"

⚠️ Warning

This package uses an offline model to process images, which is bundled with the application. This may increase the size of your app.
