Also I'd like to use this to replace MotionEye - but need something to tie into this to record the video stream when, say, a person is detected. Ideally buffering so starting 10 seconds before and the person was detected, and some time afterwards too. Ideally this would be video stream and not the Doods output as currently that's too slow

I've got a video review with some Reolink cameras with image comparisons and I'll hopefully have more coming soon of other cameras too. Hope that helps!

Great topic and information as always. I would've liked to see you hold the phone in one hand and a black wallet in the other to see how Tensorflow detected the two. I got an idea to look into later (for me that is - it is very specific). I'm breeding Great Danes and have a bunch of them. I would like to have Tensorflow determine who it is on camera by, for instance, looking at the collar. Even more interesting would be having GPS trackers on them to help with determining which dog is which when there is more than one in the picture based on where they are in the pic (getting a bit complicated, but with the tech nowadays there's almost no limit). All that would of course need more than a Pi, I don't know if Tensorflow can utilize GPUs on a PC?

Did not look that much into doods but frigate can use google coral for accelerating image processing. (yeah looked into it and DOODS also can use google coral)

@@EverythingSmartHome Well I was able to get it up and running on my 3 outside Wyze cameras. Now these are Wyze Pan Cams with the newest rstp firmware installed and then an rstp stream in Home Assistant through an ffmpeg camera. I can get the streams Into HA ok but they can sometimes loose the rstp stream and I have to reboot the camera. I have each of the 3 cameras output to their own file. And then only look for people and cars. I then setup a basic automation that if the image_processing.sidedoorcam changes from “0” to “any” to send a notification to my phone. Now I just need to figure out how to attach the processed image to the notification. It does seem to be a bit slower with rstp but that might also be an issue with the beta firmware and instability that Wyze has right now. Hopefully we’ll see more native Wyze support in the future as the price point for these cameras make them too attractive not to be functional with HA. Currently with 3 cameras processing at 5 seconds each my RPi4-8gig is running between 20-30% processor utilization. Even though that’s low it doesn’t seem to be able to process the images any faster. I’ll have to look into optimizing and setting up custom detections. Of course I’m running my entire HA environment on the same Pi so I can’t have all the processing power for image rastorization. It’s currently running about 50 various devices on my property and more are coming lol. Eventually I’d like it to recognize me and my family and if our phone is also in the geofence to unlock the door and play an announcement. Anyway, please let me know what you think or if you have any ideas or suggestions. I’m also wanting to tie the cameras motion detection into a sensor I can use in my Home Alarm.

I’m going to look further down this path as all of my cameras rely on rstp and currently @Wyze has basically no support for this minus their beta firmware.

Hello, thanks for watching! You can add a second platform in the config with a seperate camera or you can use a template in the file name to name it the same as the camera, hope that helps!

Hi is there a way to save files when pictures are detected like a nvr? as is, it doing an "file_out" but can it save each person that is detected? thanks

Hello, you can indeed save the images using the timestamp in the file name. Check the Home Assistant docs for this integration and you will see on of the examples they give you is able to save the files.

Thanks, based on your video I found the DOODS add-on for home assistant which doesn't require to SSH into home assistant etc, so it's even easier this way. It's a shame that DOODS doesn't work for me as persons will be standing on the other side of a glass door which has a couple of white metal strips running horizontally. This confuses DOODS. I would have to train it to recognise a person with white bars in front of it :). Are you planning on making a video on training DOODS?

Is doods in the video running on a RPI4? You mentioned a processing time about 0.3 s, this seems not to be the case on a RPI4? Why didn't you use the Hasson addon from the doods author? This would be easier for most people instead of using docker straight from Hassio?

Hello, no DOODs is not running on a RPI in this video, only the camera is. I wasn't aware there was an add-on to be honest, I checked supervisor store and HACS and didn't see it, can you let me know where it is?

Thank for the video. So am I understanding this correctly, Tensorflow is bundled in with the DOODS software, you don't download and install Tensorflow separately?

In which part was the tensorflow used? Only DOODS?

Sorry I'm not sure I understand the question? DOODs is a rest API for tensorflow

Nice video. I have it up and running on my NUC. A few comments that might be useful: If Doods doesn't detect an object it doesn't output an image at all. I spent quite a lot of time head scratching that one, and to be honest it's not really the behaviour I want - is there anyway to change this? I couldn't see anything in the component webpage to force an picture when no obejcts are found Even on my NUC performance is slow. I'm managing one sample every 5 seconds. Is the processing speed dependent upon image size, and if so if there a way to downsample the image size to speed up processing. Despite my slow processing speed, none of the cores of my CPU are maxed out. Again - anyway to speed up the processing that way? What's the threading on Doods like? If I have one camera processing one image in 5 seconds, does that mean I would need to put the update interval to 10 seconds if I add an additional camera - or would they run in parallel and make better use of the available CPU?

Thank you, appreciate it! Yes there is away to "tune" DOODS since it is running Tensorflow, but you might need a little bit of Docker knowledge in order to access the config. Nothing too complicated but I'm unsure on how much docker you have done before. This allows you to set the width and height, set the number of cores to use for processing and also to change the models used, you might want to try some different tensorflow lite models. One other way to approach it is to add a second "lower resolution" stream to HA that is not visible, but that you can use for processing. Hope that makes sense and answers the question!
