- Optimized for fluid video generation across multiple resolutions and formats
Key Features
- Control condition focused on Depth maps to guide video generation with spatial awareness
- Supports multi-resolution video prediction at 512, 768, and 1024 pixels
- Trained with 81 frames at 16 frames per second (FPS), enabling smooth and fluid motion
- Multi-language support for broad global usability
- Enables video generation by specifying the subject with depth-based scene consistency
- Compatible with various video input types, including mp4, mov, webm, m4v, and gif
Comparison with Other Models
vs KLING 2.0: Wan 2.2 Depth uses a Mixture-of-Experts architecture focusing on precise depth map control for spatially coherent video, whereas KLING 2.0 provides broader video synthesis capabilities but with less explicit depth-driven motion control. Wan 2.2 offers superior temporal stability and scene consistency at resolutions up to 1080p.
vs Veo 3: Veo 3 targets fast real-time video synthesis with lower resolution focus (e.g., 720p) optimized for speed, while Wan 2.2 Depth prioritizes cinematic quality with detailed depth conditioning and frame coherence, offering higher-quality outputs at the cost of more compute.
vs Wan 2.1 VACE: Wan 2.2 Depth significantly improves video smoothness, motion realism, and depth accuracy by leveraging an upgraded architecture, while Wan 2.1 VACE is less specialized in depth and tends to produce less stable outputs in complex scenes.
