Josh HawkinsandGitHub 8a88cefc9a Autotracking tweaks (#24935)
* fix autotracking movement time prediction and recorded move times

Movement time prediction multiplied the fitted intercept by the saved zero-step calibration time instead of 1, so predictions didn't match the regression. In absolute zoom mode, a pan/tilt followed by a zoom recorded the zoom's timestamps against the pan/tilt distance, because _zoom_absolute resets the PTZ start and stop times. The pan/tilt times are now captured before the zoom runs.

* predict velocity and zoom size for objects approaching the autotracked camera

The velocity check required both box corners to move in the same direction, but the corners of an approaching object diverge, so its velocity was rejected and zeroed and the camera aimed where the object had been. That check is removed, and the existing magnitude, delta, and variance checks still reject noise. The zoom size prediction fit area against epoch time with no intercept, which returned roughly the mean area instead of a forecast. It now scales the target box by the growth the corner velocities predict over the movement time.

* keep predicted target box positive and add regression tests

A shrinking object's predicted size could reach zero, so the relative zoom ratio divided by zero and sent a NaN zoom to the camera. The predicted size is now floored at 1 px. Tests also cover the movement time intercept and the pan/tilt timestamps that absolute zoom overwrites.

Frigate NVR™ - Realtime Object Detection for IP Cameras

License: MIT

Translation status

[English] | 简体中文

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
