On Guard Security Assistant Version 1.8.2.3
This project uses Blue Iris or any IP/network camera capable of producing .jpg still images as a security camera image source. It uses DeepStack as an AI to intelligently identify objects. It allows the user to monitor as many cameras as desired. It allows the user to visually create multiple areas that are of security interest, including the types of objects that are of interest in each area. It optionally triggers recording via Blue Iris and/or sends notification emails to the user. It supports notification via MQTT with user defined (or predefined) topics and payloads.
Note that while On Guard can be used with almost any IP/network camera cameras without Blue Iris, some functionality will be lost. For instance, you will not be able to use the pan/tilt/zoom or the Snapshot and Continuous video features. There are too many variations in the camera command layout between manufacturers and models.
This release contains a bug fix that adds error detection when an AI location data is corrupt/not as expected.
Note that this is expected to be the last 1.8.x release -- new releases will be in the 2.0.x branch.
