I’m looking into self hosted and open source nvr options and frigate looks like the right fit for me. I’m curious what hardware others are running it on and how many cameras they have. How many people are running it in home assistsnt?
The hardware isn’t super important if you can get a Google Coral TPU. You can run Frigate on a Raspberry Pi that way. Without the TPU, it can be fairly CPU intensive.
I run Frigate on an old laptop and before the TPU it would run really hot. After it runs much cooler.
