I was browsing the Home Assistant Community Forums earlier today, when I noticed a post<\/a> by Robin Cole!<\/a><\/p>\n

Rob has created a custom component for Home Assistant that allows us to use image classification via Tagbox<\/a>, on a camera feed that Home Assistant has access to.<\/p>\n

Following the instructions on github<\/a> was pretty straight forward, the only thing I changed was to reference an external image_procesing.yaml rather than having it all in my configuration.yaml as I’m trying to be a bit cleaner.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In this case, my docker is running on Windows, the Tagbox instructions<\/a> were fine for this, I didn’t realise you can just run the image and if its not installed, it will download it \ud83d\ude42 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So now that it’s all setup it appears to be working great! 
\n\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

As you can see, the component creates a new entity called image_processing.tagbox_name, with a state of the most likely item in the image, and then some attributes of the next most likely, and a count of any specific tags from the config.<\/p>\n

I’ll play around with it to see what I can use it for more practically,  I can think of all sorts of things this component will be useful for! From identifying if a car spot is free or taken, to seeing if the bins were already taken out! <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I just wish I could specify a region within a camera feed for it to analyse. <\/p>\n
