Frigate NVR is an open-source Network Video Recorder (NVR) designed for IP cameras, featuring real-time local object detection. It processes video feeds locally using AI, ensuring that camera footage never leaves the user's home. Frigate leverages the Google Coral TPU to perform advanced analysis, identifying objects of interest such as people, cars, and other objects, thereby reducing false positives. It integrates with home automation platforms like Home Assistant, OpenHab, and NodeRed via MQTT, providing low-latency camera entities and real-time sensors for automation and notifications.
