In this day and age with all sorts of different cameras we also need a better NVR system to be doing continual recording and accurate away from home motion alerts. Perhaps such a thing could be shoved into a raspberry pi 4. The current state of consumer cameras are either spend $300 for an indoor one that's "cloud enabled". Or $100 for a bullet that you need an NVR to have effective.

Hopefully, it can be sent to my own server for backup.
Looking at your website this seems well done. > require device with iOS 14.1 or later This means an iPhone 6S or newer. Not often an unused device, I think ;-) I have a 6 that I use for tests, but otherwise I could get good money even for that one.
I have been on 6S+ for YEARS - and have no desire to upgrade due to, I believe, this is the last iPhone before facial recognition - which I DO NOT WANT. --- We bought a house recently and it came with a Cobra 8-camera security system - which comes from Harbor Freight (inherited - I didnt install it) -- but its remote mobile app is some shady 3rd party app from China - and it rarely works, but I am convinced it allows…
I still use a 6S as a burner and have another for tests, they’re a great device
For Android, there's a project called Haven [1] made by Edward Snowden. It doesn't use fancy AI, but it does monitor the camera, mic, and other sensors for changes, and sends notifications via Signal. [1] https://guardianproject.github.io/haven/

This app lets you turn your unused phone into a security camera. It has AI event detection (person, face, animal) and smart alerts, but the smart functionality runs offline. No footage is sent to our server. Actually we don't have a server. You don't need to sign up or create a profile. Notification is sent through Apple's server (we currently have only iOS app). We are doing beta program (free). We'd love to hear yo…
We have cameras on driveways, etc where there is no power or ethernet. These cameras (and perhaps a solar powered wifi mesh network, which these could form if they had the right software) are a reasonable solution to that problem: https://m.reolink.com/ I’d love to have it take video feeds from something like those. (Perhaps via a standard network protocol.) Store + ml recognize them locally, and simultaneously clien…

Totally agree. Sadly, outdoor pi cams are not cheap. In the meantime I think Ubiquiti might be the best option.
Ubiquiti cameras are way overpriced. The NVR has no real advanced functions. And their small indoor cameras are wifi only but require POE to power up. Everytime a power interrupt happens the wifi cams don't reconnect and start broadcasting their setup ssid and have to be manually reconnected. Their awesome tech support has turned into absolute garbage and can have hours long queues to only have an inexperienced person tell you they will follow up with an email. I was once a fan, but now will not install anymore of their equipment.
I'd like the best of both Worlds, remote access to my (as yet hypothetical) cameras while being secure from others. Plus being wireless, with decent encryption. It seems reasonable, yet everything I've looked at is a joke.
