Interesting .......

Starlight tech? So it's not a night full color camera then?

If you are going to use Homekit then you will not need Coral TPU. If you are going to use NVR then yes you will need Coral or a Minipc with GPU. From my understanding that Beelink EQ12 N100 have Intel GPU built in and the GPU can be used for processing AI instead of Coral. Not all Minipc M.2...

Oh, I forgot to mention my Beelink EQ N100 come with Windows 11 Pro preinstalled. The WIndows 11 Pro was deleted and replaced with Ubuntu Server because Windows does weird stuff to dockers network bridging that Scrypted or many other dockers don't like about. You could always try Blue Iris on...

OS: Ubuntu Server - Ubuntu Server - for scale out workloads | Ubuntu App: Scrypted - Scrypted Homekit hub: AppleTV latest gen SSD: PNY 2TB (not using but it's installed on minipc) For AI: Google Corel (not using but it's installed on minipc) Originally, I was plan on using Scrypted NVR with...

If you are using a built in PoE ports on the back of the NVR then that would be an issue since all cameras would be on it own separate subnet which would not be visible to Scrypted on a Pi. Unless the NVR have a setting to put camera on the same subnet as the NVR is on itself. I also have...

If you just only wanted the Apple AI notification then a Raspberry PI should work if you have one laying around.

it'll work on iPhone and iPad. You'll need a small pc to run Scrypted and an Apple hub. I am not sure but I think iPad can be the Apple hub. I run it in a Beelink mini pc and use AppleTV as my Apple hub. It'll send alert to all of my Apple Ecosystem devices online. I use it because I am deaf...

If you are an Apple Ecosystem home user, you could check out a 3rd party app Scrypted Scrypted and use the Apple AI to detect animals. It does a very good job on all of my Dahua camera. Even detect squirrels on my porch until I finally got tired of the alerts and power washed my porch to get rid...

You mentioned you use iOS and you can always try Scrypted out Scrypted with the Reolink doorbell and the Apple AI to alert you there a person approaching to your door before they even get a chance to press the doorbell button or not. I been using it as a docker on my mini pc and tied it into...

yup yup yup I'm older than dirt lol ... 1. I was a manager for a Drive In Theatre that was built in 1940 in the 80's for several years. Started out as a concession stand worker and projectorist. 2. Those candies was like eating chalks! 3. I had one and played Elvis records on it from Sunset...

Wow that is awesome ... that was the whole reason why I didn't dive into Reolink doorbell because I am Deaf and I need something to send signal to my home hub that flashes the lights when button is pressed and with this video now it's possible. When video mentioned that the receiver is 433mhz...
