Enable facial recognition? #8

Closed fodi666 closed 2 years ago

fodi666 commented 2 years ago

Hi, thanks for the addon, works great with Blue Iris instance in a different VM. I have a suggestion, though: can you also enable facial recognition for Deepstack? I'm fine with having a config entry for enabling facial recognition if you think that is not needed for everyone. (it should be possible to add "VISION-FACE=True" to the existing query also can be added alongside "VISION-DETECTION=True" Thanks

Two issues:

  1. This addon deploys the coral-pi-rest-server that supports object detection only
  2. Coral TPU can load only one model at once, so it can't do both model detection and facial recognition.

While I supply the model dynamically to the integration, and could add an option to trigger face recognition, the underlying service doesn't support it.

I suggest you report your feature request here and reopen this issue when the feature will be implemented.

OK, fair enough, left a feature request over there.
