NVR with realtime local object detection for IP cameras
Go to file
Josh Hawkins ed08d4152b discard tracked-object state when detect resolution changes mid-session
When detect resolution changes mid-session every tracked object we hold
was localized against the old pixel grid. Their boxes no longer
correspond to anything in the new frame, and the `end` callback that
fires when their IDs disappear from the new detect process's detections
publishes those stale boxes to consumers (LPR, snapshot crop) that slice
the new frame and crash on empty arrays. Drop the tracked-object state
on a shape change so no stale boxes ever cross the CameraState boundary.

Belt-and-suspenders: also drop any incoming batch whose boxes exceed the
current detect resolution. These are in-flight queue entries from the
pre-recycle detect process that beat the new detect process to the
queue; processing them would re-introduce stale-resolution tracked
objects we just dropped above. The per-camera detect process clamps
legitimate boxes to detect.width-1 / detect.height-1, so any coord
beyond that is unambiguously stale.

Frigate NVR™ - Realtime Object Detection for IP Cameras

License: MIT

Translation status
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
