Remove Background Node
The Remove Background node uses AI to automatically detect and remove the background from an image, producing a transparent PNG output. This is essential for isolating subjects before compositing them into new scenes.
What It Does
You feed this node any image, and it identifies the foreground subject -- a person, product, object, or character -- and strips away everything else. The result is a transparent PNG that you can layer onto new backgrounds using the Composition Node or export directly for use in other tools.
Configuration
| Parameter | Description | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Input Image | The image from which to remove the background | Connected from an upstream node |
| Output Format | The format of the processed image | Transparent PNG (automatic) |
This node does not require manual configuration beyond connecting an input image. The AI automatically detects the subject and produces a transparent PNG.
Usage
- Drag a Remove Background node onto the canvas.
- Connect the output of an Image Generator, Asset Node, or any image-producing node to its input.
- Execute the node to produce the background-free image.
- Route the transparent output to a Composition Node to place the subject on a new background, or to an Image Edit Node to convert it to a different format.
For best results, use source images where the subject has clear edges and good contrast against the background. Complex or semi-transparent elements (such as hair wisps or glass) may require additional refinement.
Related Nodes
- Asset Node -- source the image whose background you want to remove.
- Image Generator Node -- generate an image and then isolate the subject.
- Composition Node -- place the isolated subject onto a new background.
- Image Edit Node -- convert the transparent PNG to another format.
