I would likely consider using this setup for some inexpensive auxiliary cameras to enhance coverage. I’ve also had the desire to add a cheap remote camera while I’m staying in an Airbnb. However, I wouldn’t use this system for any serious surveillance around the house.
- varenc 1y agoIf can support detection events on 3rd party ONVIF cameras, but you have to buy a seperate ubiquiti hardware product to run the detections. Either an AI Port or an AI Key.
- gregoriol 1y agoYou could also use the ZoneMinder (open-source), it supports many video/image streams from cameras and provides detections/alerting
- varenc 1y agoI use scrypted! It's 'open source' but not free. Was just talking about getting detecting in the Unifi Protect NVR (which is pretty nice I admit)
