Unified UI and API for processing and training images for facial recognition.
There's a lot of great open source software to perform facial recognition, but each of them behave differently. Double Take was created to abstract the complexities of the detection services and combine them into an easy to use UI and API.
- Responsive UI and API bundled into single Docker image
- Ability to password protect UI and API
- Support for multiple detectors
- Train and untrain images for subjects
- Process images from NVRs
- Publish results to MQTT topics
- REST API can be invoked by other applications
- Disable detection based on a schedule
- Home Assistant Add-ons
- Preprocess images with OpenCV
- amd64
- arm64
- arm/v7
Subscribe to Frigate's MQTT topics and process images for analysis.
mqtt:
host: localhost
frigate:
url: https://localhost:5000
When the frigate/events
topic is updated the API begins to process the snapshot.jpg
and latest.jpg
images from Frigate's API. These images are passed from the API to the configured detector(s) until a match is found that meets the configured requirements. To improve the chances of finding a match, the processing of the images will repeat until the amount of retries is exhausted or a match is found.
When the frigate/+/person/snapshot
topic is updated the API will process that image with the configured detector(s). It is recommended to increase the MQTT snapshot size in the Frigate camera config.
cameras:
front-door:

timestamp: False
bounding_box: False

If a match is found the image is saved to /.storage/matches/<filename>
.
Trigger automations / notifications when images are processed.
If the MQTT integration is configured within Home Assistant, then sensors will automatically be created.
This notification will work for both matches and unknown results. The message can be customized with any of the attributes from the entity.

Publish results to double-take/matches/<name>
and double-take/cameras/<camera>
. The number of results will also be published to double-take/cameras/<camera>/person
and will reset back to 0
after 30 seconds.
Errors from the API will be published to double-take/errors
.
