Apple's FastVLM model offers near-instant high-resolution image processing and can now be tested on Apple Silicon-powered Macs. The model, available on Hugging Face, can describe images and video in real-time, with the ability to run locally on the browser and offline. The demo uses the lighter 0.5-billion-parameter model, but larger variants with 1.5 billion and 7 billion parameters are also available. The model has the potential to be used in wearables and assistive technology for low latency and better performance.
