Homeowners and facility operators deploy Viseron to turn standard RTSP and ONVIF security cameras into a self-hosted network video recorder with local AI object detection, face recognition, and license plate reading. Instead of uploading private camera feeds to subscription cloud services, you monitor low-latency WebRTC live streams, scrub through an interactive event timeline, and review 24/7 continuous recordings directly from a responsive web dashboard. You can draw custom detection zones and privacy masks in the visual camera tuning editor to filter out street traffic, while lookback buffering captures footage several seconds before motion or an object triggers an event. Pluggable computer vision pipelines connect your cameras to YOLOv7 Darknet, Google Coral EdgeTPU, CompreFace, dlib, and CodeProject.AI to classify people, vehicles, known faces, and license plates in real time. Tiered storage policies automatically migrate older video segments from fast NVMe drives to high-capacity archival disks based on age and quota rules. Bidirectional MQTT integration and Home Assistant auto-discovery let you toggle cameras on demand, ingest external motion sensors, and dispatch instant snapshot alerts to Telegram or Discord. Running on a dedicated VPS on RepoCloud with guaranteed CPU, RAM, and SSD, full root SSH access, and a browser serial console. MIT licensed.
