NVR with realtime local object detection for IP cameras

ImprovedMotionDetector.detect() runs on every frame of every camera. With improve_contrast enabled (the default), it called np.percentile twice per frame to find the 4th/96th percentile of the resized motion frame, each call partitioning the whole array. Compute both percentiles from a single 256-bin uint8 histogram instead. The result is bit-identical to int(np.percentile(...)) (the values are used as uint8 contrast bounds); only the array is now scanned once rather than partitioned twice. Measured in the release image on a height-100 motion frame (the default): np.percentile x2 ~225 us -> histogram ~11 us per frame (~20x). This runs per frame per camera, so it scales with camera count. Adds a test asserting the histogram percentiles equal numpy's across uniform, low-contrast, single-color and bimodal frames.

Frigate NVR™ - Realtime Object Detection for IP Cameras
English
A complete and local NVR designed for Home Assistant with AI object detection. Uses OpenCV and Tensorflow to perform realtime object detection locally for IP cameras.
Use of a GPU or AI accelerator is highly recommended. AI accelerators will outperform even the best CPUs with very little overhead. See Frigate's supported object detectors.
- Tight integration with Home Assistant via a custom component
- Designed to minimize resource use and maximize performance by only looking for objects when and where it is necessary
- Leverages multiprocessing heavily with an emphasis on realtime over processing every frame
- Uses a very low overhead motion detection to determine where to run object detection
- Object detection with TensorFlow runs in separate processes for maximum FPS
- Communicates over MQTT for easy integration into other systems
- Records video with retention settings based on detected objects
- 24/7 recording
- Re-streaming via RTSP to reduce the number of connections to your camera
- WebRTC & MSE support for low-latency live view
