I use Homeassistant and Frigate on a $100 x86 noname micro-machine with five 4K cameras and it is awesome. CPU use does not go above 10%. Would not claim zero false positives though. However, it is smart enough to filter out non-moving false positives which many cmmercial-grade systems can not, lol.

Can't say it saved my life, but I programmed my smart bulbs to go red if a bear was spotted in any frame in the past 30 min though.

Frigate is great and worth of praise.




This is hilarious. I programmed my living room to go red if the air quality in my daughter’s room dropped to a certain degree. It should be annoying by now but instead it’s hilarious.


detectives Knows Yufarted and Bada Irinhere will solve the case and answer why a girl had so much to suffer.. trust the experts


Something may be doing over my head, but I have to ask: is this a fart/diaper joke?


No, my neighbors weed smoke was coming through her closet and raising particulate matter. He’s moved out but we’ve kept the automation and it also cranks up the air purifier.

I did hear about the farting causing VOCs to rise and that kind of happens with us too.


My guess would be to prevent smoking or vaping


may have a CO2/pollen/particulate detector, and/or child could have asthma/allergies.


Inside lights, to warn you not to go out? Or outside lights, to warn the bear that you switched to "war mode"? :D
