About Frigate
Frigate is an open source network video recorder for IP cameras with real-time AI object detection. All video analysis is performed locally on your own hardware, so camera feeds do not leave your home.
You can use it to record camera feeds, detect people, cars and other objects, and filter events and alerts by defined zones such as front steps or driveways. With a supported AI accelerator it can process video in real time, and it connects to Home Assistant, OpenHAB, Node-RED, and other platforms with MQTT support for automations and notifications.
