Hi all,

I'm planning to set up outdoor security cameras (garden and garage) and want to do it fully local, with no cloud.

My constraints:

  • 100% local storage, no vendor cloud or apps
  • PoE + ONVIF/RTSP, IP67, good night vision

Questions:

  1. Any better open or camera brands that work fully offline?
  2. Any firmware or hardening tips I might be missing?

Thanks!

https://thingino.com/ and https://frigate.video/ are a good way to setup your own camera system.

    Yes! And I bet they list supported hardware with any shortcomings. I would use that to pick something.

    These are the easiest to flash thingino on:

    Some require actual soldering, some just require you to connect using a usb cable and use a cloning tool. The usb cloning tool is available for both linux and windows:
