Hi Mike, Any updates to getting the license plate model built?

Exactly. One benefit is not needing to run the model, saving some compute, but the larger improvement comes from feeding a cropped version to the delivery.pt model.

Has there been any work in applying models serially? I know we have the option in BI to run ALPR only on vehicle detections, but for the delivery model, I'd also only want it running if first there was a vehicle detection, and ideally, it would crop and only send the vehicle portion of the image...

I label my images on Roboflow and train on my Ubuntu PC which has a 3080. After installing ultralytics, I train using this command: `yolo task=detect mode=train model=yolov8m.pt data=../data.yaml epochs=300 imgsz=640 batch=-1

You need a beefy GPU to train models, but most PCs should be able to run (inference). You can also train models in the cloud. For example, you can train a model in Roboflow in just a few clicks, but you'll pay per model it trains.

Hi @VideoDad , Some of us are using Yolov8 models. Could you build a yolov8 version of your model? Or better yet, upload the images to Roboflow as a public project, so people can augment and train.

My model is trained only off images captured from my IPCam. These types of images are much different that the stock images used to train most yolo models. The model is overfit, but works well for me. I think most of yolov8's improvements are due to better training, but the yolov5 and yolov8...

Hi Mike, I've been having some success training a Yolov8 model. How do I run some yolov5 and some yolov8 models? I don't have a yolov8 license plate model. It seems if I run both modules in CPAI, it either runs both or complains about missing models on each inference.

Thank you. I've updated my container to the latest and it's running fine after changing my port to 8080. I'm very happy with the project! I have a few questions... 1) Others have commented it would be helpful to have the images stored separately. I would like to keep my plates database on...

I didn’t change any settings for the local web server, but I can control-click the config file link, which shows it’s working fine. The PC is windows 10, and Edge is the only installed browser. However, there is an embedded browser in the tool, and that one seems out of date. I can hit both...

Hi, I know I'm late to this thread, but trying to get the downloader to work. I have Rekor recording about 4,000 plates per week. I'm able to get the tool to start. It complains about the .NET 4.6.2, which I subsequently downloaded. The first time it starts it complains its using an out of...

I have Rekor setup with a 1080p 10fps substream 2, and configured BI to use the same. I tried using the main stream and didn't see any different. Since my stream is 10fps, I set the realtime images to 30, which I would expect would give me 3 seconds. Initially I planned to run CPAI on the...

I am having the same sort of issue. I currently have Rekor working flawlessly. I was hoping to move off their paid subscription, mostly so I can create actionable alerts and also keep more than five days of history. However, BI / CPAI seems to be missing most of time, though if i step through...

I have 15 cameras and had been polling them for AI because my Jetson nano couldn’t keep up with rtsp streams. But eventually they would stop responding to http requests and I’d have to reboot the camera. What I found does work is having each camera setup to ftp on motion. The images are high...

I have a parking lot with a light on a pole near the edge. The light is a bright LED kind pointing down. I’m wondering if it would be a problem to have the camera below the luminaire. I’m trying to avoid a second pole just for cameras. I’d like it to function like this

I purchased my LPR camera on one of Empire Andy's Black Friday sales. I knew the install was going to be a ton of work - and it was - so I had been putting off this project for a while. I was inspired by crc2004's post some time back. To install, I ended up running CAT6 direct burial cable with...

I have a LNT6416 NVR with four HD Purple HDs, setup to record six cameras, mostly 5442 variety. The NVR is supposed to have 200MB incoming bandwidth. Whenever there is a IVS event, I get a several second gap, at the time of the event. The gap is present when playing back through SmartPSS or the...

I've been interested in a bird feeder cam for a while now. However, almost all are battery, wiif and cloud (and subscription) - pretty much everything you don't want in a camera. I couldn't find much in the way of wired cams, and didn't want to trench ethernet to my tree before I found out if...

I know this thread is a year old, but does anyone have experience with any of the AI bird cams? There seem to be a number of cameras with integrated wifi, solar, AI, etc.. Not for watching a nest, but for capturing the different birds who visit. I checked Amazon and found a wide variety of these...

I have a z-wave sensor in my plastic post wired to magnetic contacts on the door. When it opens I have a routine to announce on Alexa and to send a picture from my driveway cam to my phone. It doesn't let me see what's inside the mailbox, but it's very reliable.

I just checked my managed switch and it's 100Mbps. But the whole thing only supports 80Mbps. I have 5 cameras connected through the WAN side. The other 3 I put on a Dahua NVR.

Not sure when I'll get around to training other models, but if someone else is interested my dataset is here: ipcams2 Object Detection Dataset by Egge Public

Clearly you planned this out pretty well, but why are you running everything back to the basement instead of putting a POE switch per level?

I use HomeAssistant. I have routines to: Open left / right garage door when my wife or I arrive home Close left / right garage door after either of us depart Provide actionable notification if either door is open for > 15 minutes Open the garage door 6" if it's day time and the cat is in the...

I think the plain dahua firmware requires all the http streams to be over TLS. I don't know why and can't seem to disable it. My camera are only on my LAN, so I don't care about the encryption.

I got the certificate issue sorted out - eventually. I had to enable https, then I had to fool around getting Chrome to trust the self signed certificate. My mixed branding went away after I refreshed by browser - now it's the generic Dahua throughout.

I updated my Amcrest NV4108E-HS with Dahua firmware with "DH_NVR4XXX-4KS2_MultiLang_V4.001.0000005.1.R.210713". It works more or less, and has an interesting mix of Amcrest and Dahua branding: It ads the AI search as well as the audio player. Unfortunately, my live feeds and playback no...

What subnet are you using on your lan? Most users use 192.168.x.x, but if you have a 10.x.x.x it may be confusing lorex. In that case you can change the ip range of the poe ports (or change your home ip range).

The Lorex workflow expects you to plug all cameras in when you first setup the NVR. Adding them after the wizard or changing the ports can get the nvr confused, but it’s always possible to reinitialize them. There should be no reason once setup that all 8 cameras don’t initialize on boot up.

Are all 8 plugged into the rear PoE ports on the NVR? They should all just appear. You may need to reinitialize them from the Add Camera menu. You can’t do 8 camera on their own PoE switch to NVR lan port. The nvr will create back pressure on the switch and all your network will go wonky.
