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

[Coloscott]

Maybe post some pics of ai tool setup and history results

here's the setup and two history shots.

here's the setup and two history shots.

Click here and have it only display positives.. something must be triggering bi to take pics.. have you got any positive alerts with AI tool? Can you walk out there and try to set it off?

It sees a "person" in one shot and a "car" in another, neither of which are either and it shows them over and over. Both are stationary. It looks like it's showing the same alerts over and over again every 3 mins which is what I have set for Cooldown Time. This is coming together in my mind now. Is there a way to help "tune" the AI engine so it will ignore those pretty obvious mis identifications?

I've had that problem when neighbor parks in there back yard and something triggers the camera.. it identifies the car even tho it was already there, it doesn't know that.. solution for me was to mask out tiny areas on the clone camera where ai tool was picking objects up just because they were already there.. maybe turn sensitivity on clone down some too

You should set your confidence level higher. Around 80 or 90%

 

[Coloscott]

Done. Thank you! Do I need to restart anything after this change?

 

[Cameraguy]

You should set your confidence level higher. Around 80 or 90%

I think that's a little high, just my opinion

 

[ReXX]

Works great for me. But yes, it may be that different values fits different situations.

But for me, I have it at 90% and I have no false positives and it doesn't miss anything.

Hallelujah - fixed the issue. I needed to install the "noavx" version, whatever that is. Running the docker with noavx image allowed me to enter my API key and get it working.

The shadows are too dark for accurate AI, if you can not improve the contrast, then you increasing the confidence levels in BI Tool and masking those problem areas will help.Filter
Go through actual events, will give you an indication of the minimum confidence levels to use in your setup. Start with 48% for people based on the above image. For the car,you may want to mask that problematic area.

Yep the AI Tool, identifies objects. Unlike say a Dahua NVR with AI it does not identify new or removed objects. AI Tool analyses each image in isolation, which for me I am very happy with this tool.

 

[IAmATeaf]

Any small recurring false positives I just mask out. There’s an area of my garden with a recycling bin which it randomly identifies as a person

Has anyone come across this? My system has been working faulessly for months with V1.65 but found this today. AI Tools final message is can't load cameras.

Caused by a corrupt camera file. File deleted and re-installed. Back to normal.

I'm sad to admit I've spent the past 5 hours trying to get DeepStack to work and I have had zero luck. I tried running the Windows version and python kept crashing repeatedly. I saw in the troubleshooting section the recommendation was to just run as a Docker. So I rolled my sleeves up and created a brand new Ubuntu virtual machine in Hyper-V, installed Docker, then ran the docker using DeepStack's instructions. For some reason I am not getting prompted to activate when I browse to the website - it keeps telling me the brand new docker instance is already activated. When I do see AI Tools communicating to DeepStack, I'm getting either 403 or 401 error messages.

It can't/shouldn't be this hard... what in the world am I doing wrong?

You could fix it already, perfect. This is a common problem if your CPU does not support AVX (yeah don't bother what avx is exactly). Just download the -noavx Docker and it will work fine.

If you have a similar problem, have a look at the Troubleshooting section of the first post containing the real classics among the issues (with recent versions of AI Tool mainly Deepquest-related ).

Should it literally be "[Summary]" like in the URL example, or is there some sort of variable we're supposed to use or set up?

I really want to like this and use it, but I'm getting an almost 2 minute delay in processing an image - by the time it processes the activity is long over.

Post a pic of your bi clone camera record tab settings

 

[meissen]

If I'm understanding the logs correctly, it's looking like my deepstack processing is averaging 35-40 seconds. Guess I need to focus my attention to speeding that up!

Is deepstack on the bi machine?

 

[meissen]

I couldn't get deepstack to run on my windows server 2016 BI machine without python crashing so I set it up in a hyper-V ubuntu docker
