# ORB: Omni-directional Reconstruction Backbone
![ORB Banner](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/speridlabs/ORB/main/assets/banner.png)
**ORB** is a 360° panorama depth estimation model that predicts dense distance maps from equirectangular panoramas in a single forward pass.
## Model Description
This model takes a 360° equirectangular panorama (2:1 aspect ratio) as input and outputs a dense depth/distance map at the same resolution. It's designed for:
- **Zero-shot depth estimation** from panoramic images
- **Scale-invariant predictions** with geometric fidelity
- **End-to-end processing** without post-processing
## Quick Start
```python
from orb import predict_pano_depth
# Predict depth from panorama
distance = predict_pano_depth('panorama.png')
```
## Model Details
- **Input**: RGB panorama (equirectangular, width = 2 × height)
- **Output**: Dense depth/distance map (same resolution as input)
- **Format**: SafeTensors (1.3 GB)
- **Precision**: FP32 / FP16 supported
- **Base Architecture**: Built upon [DA²: Depth Anything in Any Direction](https://arxiv.org/abs/2509.26618)
