wnpublic Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Sort of a fun thing I'm doing with Home Assistant, but I'd think it should be doable with C4 if someone writes an integration. When Unifi detects an object (vehicle, person, animal), HA sends a camera snapshot to Google Generative AI with a prompt to interpret what's occurring in the photo. A notification is then sent to the phone with the AI text and the snapshot. It can be very accurate if the image quality is good and the prompt is good: Neo1738 and neil12011 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fun, but not terribly practical yet as the tech is still developing. For instance you can tell it to give you license plate numbers, but it tends to hallucinate and give fake ones, even if you tell it "Provide a license plate number but only if you are SURE." But you can see where it's going to be very cool (and intrusive). The one practical use i've found is that i've got it watching the backyard of an AirBNB to tell me if it spots two or more dogs (only one is allowed). It's pretty good at that.

Shoe Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Yes, cool. I like what Unifi has done with their recent Protect update. Dueport 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnicholson Posted March 21 Share Posted March 21 Sounds cool. Is this all pre-baked in Unifi? I have a Dream Machine SE, but I don’t use Protect. Wondering how hard it would be to implement via emailed photos form my (non Unifi) NVR. Not sure I see a C4 angle, but still cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Home Assistant sends the notification, but it's agnostic as to tech. Anything that can feed it a picture and a prompt can use it, and the info is just a JSON response. Would be straightforward to use it in a C4 app notification. cnicholson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
