Keeps alerting me to empty boxes of ‘person’ detected with 90+% confidence. So frustrated right now.
I’ve been using Frigate for years. The built in object detection (without subscription) is excellent and very near 100% accurate. Initial setup was somewhat of challenge though. It’s free (donations encouraged) or a low cost subscription for more advanced detection.

It’s not just more advanced detection, they will fine tune models for you if you upload images of true/false positives/negatives.
You didn’t mention it can also recognize and identify wildlife, trash cans, lawnmowers, license plates, delivery truck companies, and even faces.
I’m ditching BI after years of use after they recently updated the iPhone app which broke me connecting remotely.
And yes, the AI has gone way downhill with each update, be it DeepStack/CPAI/integrated.
I just picked up a Ubiquiti fiber cloud gateway and a camera to start moving over to that ecosystem instead, as my camera feeds are important to me when not at home.
I ran BI for years, but left them for a Ubiquiti device. Yes it required new cameras, and of course the investment in a UniFi device, but damn is UniFi Protect good. Does great detection and no subscription or fees of any kind, plus gets frequent updates and feature improvents. Not a solution for everyone, but I believed the hype of BI for years and thought there was nothing better. Turns out there is.
I don’t know the technology behind it, but back in the day, Google’s Picasa was pretty good at facial recognition and grouping.
