Frigate NVR vs motionEye
November 22, 2024 | Author: Michael Stromann
8★
Frigate is an open source NVR built around real-time AI object detection. All processing is performed locally on your own hardware, and your camera feeds never leave your home.
7★
motionEye is a web-based frontend for Motion - highly configurable program that monitors video signals from many types of cameras and depending upon how they are configured, perform actions when movement is detected.
Frigate NVR and motionEye are both open-source video surveillance systems that support multiple camera types and are often used in small business offices and other spaces. They feature web-interface for admin panel and viewing video feeds and can trigger alerts based on motion detection.
But Frigate NVR (available since 2020) is primarily developed for smart-home. It uses machine learning for object detection (via frameworks TensorFlow or Coral) which enables more accurate recognition of specific objects (like people, cars and animals) and minimize false positives alerts. Therefore it requires more robust hardware to run the AI-powered engine.
motionEye or Motion (2014) is Hungary-based product. It's known for its simplicity and integration with various systems, including Raspberry Pi. It relies on traditional motion detection algorithms without AI. So it has lower hardware requirements and is better suited for companies that need a lightweight video monitoring program.
