Where Ultralytics is headed
From the models that brought real-time vision AI to millions, to the releases on the horizon. Here's what we've shipped and what's coming next.
The release that brought real-time object detection to millions — PyTorch-native, fast, and remarkably easy to train.
One framework for detection, segmentation, classification, pose estimation, and oriented bounding boxes.
A refined architecture delivering higher accuracy with fewer parameters, unveiled at YOLO Vision 2024.
Our current recommended model — faster, more accurate, and production-ready across every vision task.
The end-to-end platform to annotate data, train YOLO models, and deploy across 43 global regions — all in one place.
Our first semantic segmentation models — dense per-pixel class labels for full-scene understanding.
Faster, more accurate multi-object tracking — more stable identities through occlusions and crowded scenes for real-world video.
- Re-ID — re-identification keeps object identities consistent across cameras and after occlusions
Built-in distillation to compress large teacher models into smaller, faster students that keep their accuracy — ideal for edge and real-time deployment.
Purpose-built anomaly detection for manufacturing quality assurance — catching defects and out-of-spec parts right on the production line.
Shenzhen, China · YOLO Vision 2026
The next flagship generation of YOLO, unveiled live at YOLO Vision 2026, expanding the family into 3D perception:
- YOLO-Depth — monocular depth estimation from a single camera
- YOLO-StereoDepth — binocular disparity depth for robotics, a camera-native alternative to lidar
Iterative, LLM-driven training analysis that automatically diagnoses each run and refines the configuration over successive rounds to push accuracy higher.
New capabilities join the YOLO family throughout 2027:
- YOLO-OCR — fast, accurate text recognition
- YOLO-Face — facial recognition and analysis
- YOLO-VLM — a lightweight YOLO front-end feeding a deeper LLM layer for efficient vision-language pipelines
