Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash adds 4K upscaling, 40-second scene extension, and frame-to-frame video generation
- Gemini Omni 1.1 Flash extends generated scenes in 10-second increments to a cumulative 40 seconds, using 10 seconds of prior video context rather than the final second used by earlier Omni releases.
- Developers can provide a first frame and last frame, and the model generates the continuous motion between them for shots such as camera orbits, dolly zooms, and loops.
- The update generates 360p drafts up to 60% faster than 720p output at roughly one-third of the cost, according to the article.
- Generated video can be upscaled to 1080p or 4K, and the model accepts video references up to three seconds long.
- Google says the model is available through the Gemini API, Google AI Studio, and Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform; Adobe Firefly, Figma Weave, and GMI Cloud are already using it in production tools.
