[tool] [tutorial] Free AI Person Detection for Blue Iris

At this point I really wish there was a way to trigger an alert based on the Memo sent over. I really would like to record on person or cars driving by my house, but only have Blue Iris send an alert when a person walks by.

I have telegram setup for just person, but then I have to see that and then run through all the recorded things to find when it was. Would love to just click a blue iris notification to view the video.

That is how I currently have AI setup. It only alerts and sends a push when a person has been detected. Adjust your BI alerts to only include “External”.
 
@pbc
The pictures are quite dark. Have you tried switching on IR illumination?

Unfortunately its the ColorVu cameras with LED from Hik, so no IR. Guess I could change exposure, just not sure how great video would look below say 1/250 or whatever it's currently set at.

I have AITool detecting Car and Person so it will record either. If I turned on alerts it would tell BI to alert on Car or Person. I would like to continue recording car and person events but only alerting on Person.
 
Just FYI- No issues or questions. I have had over 2K alerts since Nov 2 (6 Cameras) Between then and now I have updated to the latest AITOOL-VORLONCD 2-0-109-7617 ( I think it is the latest) I really like that now my Telegram msg's have the box w/ % and what it is and it is also shown on the bottom of the pic, also in the dashboard (AI) where it shows input rates it now has the title over each slice. very nice. Only issue is I am also having the problem where at night the detections are lack luster at best and it does miss obvious things (people) That may be DS? I have noticed a higher % of missed detections and false detections with the newest version but for me it is not that big of a deal, it still seems to catch a high enough % that I am happy- Overall it is still great and thank you smart folks so much for this and all the work you are doing!
 
I had a issue last night after I cleaned and reformatted my drive that holds [new] [aiiput]. I run BlueIris as a service and for what ever reason BI was starting so fast it was grabbing dockers IP address of the virtual network adapter. Ended up setting BlueIris service to start '''delayed automatic'''. Anyone else have a issue like this and find a different solution?
 
I can't seem to get --Cancel Alerts to work... At least not the way I'm thinking it's suppose to work...

Is it because there isn't an image for AITool to process to give the false result to send a cancel alert?
AItool doesn't have the image because BI hasn't produced one. What caused the trigger is no longer in the cameras view to cause a BI motion trigger and an image to go to AITool.
 
I'm running version 2.0.37.7608 of the VorlonCD fork.

How can I change how far back the history view (GUI) displays? Right now it only shows about 8-9 hours back, showing around 1500 detections (relevant and irrelevant combined) or 500 relevant detections.
In AITool.Settings.JSON-fileI can see:

"maxLogFileAgeDays": 14,
"maxLogFileSize": 10485760,
"maxHistoryAgeDays": 14,
"maxGUILogItems": 5000,

It depends on how many images are saved in the AITool input folder.

Hi,
Does anyone have any idea how to make the Annotation overlays on images sent through Telegram larger? I would like to make the red line for the boxes a little thicker and need to have the detection words and confidence percentages much larger. I have to zoom all the way in to the image on my phone to see what the detection and percentage was. I hope this makes sense. See image..107929164_371173.jpg
