+
+A complete and local NVR designed for [Home Assistant](https://www.home-assistant.io) with AI object detection. Uses OpenCV and Tensorflow to perform realtime object detection locally for IP cameras.
+
+Use of a GPU or AI accelerator is highly recommended. AI accelerators will outperform even the best CPUs with very little overhead. See Frigate's supported [object detectors](https://docs.frigate.video/configuration/object_detectors/).
+
+- Tight integration with Home Assistant via a [custom component](https://github.com/blakeblackshear/frigate-hass-integration)
+- Designed to minimize resource use and maximize performance by only looking for objects when and where it is necessary
+- Leverages multiprocessing heavily with an emphasis on realtime over processing every frame
+- Uses a very low overhead motion detection to determine where to run object detection
+- Object detection with TensorFlow runs in separate processes for maximum FPS
+- Communicates over MQTT for easy integration into other systems
+- Records video with retention settings based on detected objects
+- 24/7 recording
+- Re-streaming via RTSP to reduce the number of connections to your camera
+- WebRTC & MSE support for low-latency live view
