Is there a wasy to run detections on a video/webcam/rtrsp, etc EVERY x SECONDS?

[ashutoshdhanda]

🚀 Feature

I would like the model to act on my input stream, no continuously, but every x number of seconds.

Motivation

I'm saving the results (object class, coordinates, only these two for now) in a MySQL database, so as to create dashboard with some graphical analysis, etc. My idea is to NOT store every frame of the video because it's too much unnecessary data and that's not a good thing, it just adds more data to deal with, makes the DB very heavy, etc.

What would be even better is that the code takes a snapshot of the detection every x seconds or every x seconds whenever there's a detection from a specific class/list of classes. This is also a feature that I need to work on for my surveillance app project.

Thanks, your hard work is appreciated by my and my team. Bravo!
