I built a local first AI CCTV assistant using Gemma 4 + Frigate
Dhanush Reddy developed a local-first AI CCTV assistant using Gemma 4 and Frigate to enhance home surveillance. The system provides detailed notifications about detected movements, improving the usefulness of alerts. By processing everything locally, it ensures privacy while delivering real-time summaries of events captured by CCTV cameras.
- ▪The AI CCTV assistant uses Frigate for movement detection and Home Assistant for automation.
- ▪Instead of generic alerts, users receive detailed notifications about specific activities, such as descriptions of individuals approaching the property.
- ▪The system processes all data locally, ensuring that no footage is sent to the cloud.
