Comment on Doorbell Camera / NVR (post Unifi)

FrigateNVR is a bit of a pain but has worked great with all my Reolink camera’s. I also link them into HomeAssistant. I have one 4K PTZ camera, four 1080p fixed cameras, and one dual 4K lens 180 degree view camera all POE powered and hooked into both FrigateNVR and HomeAssistant.
I use a Quanta LB6M for 10G backbone and a Dell PowerConnect 5548 for Ethernet with a pair of DAC cables linking the two with my router and server connected via OM3 to the LB6M.
Once you set up Frigate, you’ll never want to go back. I also use Frigate with Reolink cameras. I use two Coral tpu for recognition, personally, but similarly have a fiber connection to my NAS from my server with frigate.

I have the Coral dual tpu module and have an adapter coming that will allow me to use two of them for a total of 4 modules, paired with an ARC A310 for video decoding.
The only bad thing about the Google Coral is that Google has stopped development and archived the driver so one you get to a certain linux kernel version you will have issues unless you switch from the official version. lemmy.world/post/46390410
If I didn’t already have the Coral I would probably go with the Hailo 8. I’m going to use the ARC A310 for detection on a couple streams and the Coral for the rest since the detection is more basic.
Yeah. I’m hoping that the new support for YOLOv9 extends the life of Coral. If not, I have a B50 that I’d probably use for it.
