The paper introduces Vidu, a high-performance text-to-video generator capable of producing 1080p videos up to 16 seconds in a single generation. Built upon the U-ViT backbone, Vidu leverages diffusion models for scalability and handles long videos. It showcases strong coherence and dynamism, generating realistic and imaginative videos while understanding professional photography techniques, comparable to Sora, the most powerful reported text-to-video generator. The paper also explores initial experiments in controllable video generation, including canny-to-video, video prediction, and subject-driven generation, yielding promising results.

Vidu is a new AI system that can turn words into videos! It’s really good at making long videos too. Vidu uses special computer vision techniques to make the videos look realistic and fun. The researchers tested Vidu by asking it to generate different types of videos and were happy with the results. This technology has many possible uses, like creating movies or TV shows from scripts.
