The issue is that you may not want to update the image when the object is not in the zone you want.
This can already be controlled by MQTT -> required_zones in the frigate config
I am not sure how it would help for this specific issue. I am already doing MQTT filtering myself based on the zone and other attributes of the payload to trigger the alarm.
Do you mean that using required_zones
in the MQTT section would change how the integration is updating the image
entity of a camera?
Like I wrote, as an alternative solution, I can snapshot the camera for a specific zone and save it somewhere as camera_zone_person_latest.jpg
. Or more precisely, use the image_best_snapshot
of the latest event that matched my criteria, and again, save it somewhere as the latest one.
along with snapshot -> required_zones
and record -> events -> required_zones
frigate also has mqtt -> required_zones
which controls what zones an object must enter to update the mqtt image entity.
Ok thank you. That's not what I need because the image and zone I need depend on the scenario. E.g.: MQTT image used by Double Take for processing, but not in a specific zone while I'd like an image of the latest person in a specific zone on my HA dashboard.
I second this request..

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It would be great to have
image
entities per object type for each zone (of each camera or globally).Currently, they are created per object type for each camera. The issue is that you may not want to update the image when the object is not in the zone you want. Also, you may want the latest object event in a specific zone that is covered by multiple cameras.
image.camera_zone_object
Use case: I have one camera in the garden, but I would like to show on my dashboard the latest image of someone in thegarden
zone, not in thecrop_field zone
.image.zone_object
Since we have sensors for zones (occupancy
andcount
), I think it could be great to also haveimage
. Use case: I would like to show on my dashboard the image of the latest person in my garden with two cameras pointing to it.Describe the solution you'd like Create additional entities with this format (
camera_zone_object
):image.frontyard_street_car
image.frontyard_street_person
image.frontyard_driveway_car
image.frontyard_driveway_person
Create additional entities with this format (
camera_zone_object
):image.street_car
image.street_person
image.driveway_car
image.driveway_person
Describe alternatives you've considered Snapshot manually the camera entity on MQTT event.
