About Frigate
Frigate is an open-source Network Video Recorder (NVR) with built-in AI object detection. It processes IP camera feeds in real time using TensorFlow or Google Coral TPU accelerators, detecting persons, cars, animals, packages, and custom objects without sending video to the cloud.
Frigate features a timeline-based review interface, zone-based alerts, MQTT integration for home automation, and support for recording and snapshots. All processing happens locally on your server.
