Hardware for surveillance? - Lemmy.world

I’m planning to set up a CCTV system to watch around a building. Anybody running Shinobi or something? And if so, what hardware are you using? I bought some cheapo v380s but the ones I got are honestly hot garbage.

I've tried many, including QNAP and Zone minder in my RPi4. I've landed with Frigate on my RPI4. Works like a charm with 2 web cams. Much more than this and you will need a GPU like Coral but those are almost impossible to find. It's hooked up to Home Assistant for eg notifications.
