Have you guys thought about creating server side object analytics using something like the Google Coral M.2 accelerator keys to be able to do object detection on any generic camera stream.

  I also would love to see functionality like this. It seems unfathomable to have to purchase all new cameras for a large installation to take advantage of such available features out there. I am blown away by what can be done in recent open source NVR applications via Coral and other ML accelerators locally on the server with very good efficiency. 
  
  If your installation is running on recent intel hardware, you can try OpenVino, I have been impressed in its abilities so far. Nowhere near as efficient as a dedicated ML accelerated model but still impressive and at no cost.

  For anyone landing on this thread: server-side detection on generic camera streams is now available as a plugin in the Nx Integration Directory. Disclosure: I'm the developer of IA-N Analyse (ElectroniSafe). 

  It runs on the Nx server and adds people/vehicle detection, intrusion zones, line crossing and licence plate reading to cameras that have no analytics of their own, configured from the Nx client. Free 30-day trial: https://nxvms.com/integrations/945-ia-n-analyse 

  Happy to answer questions here.
