Tracking people across home security cameras with cheap frame sampling and Haiku 5.5
indragie · x · 2026-10-12
A practical home-surveillance workflow: Ring's built-in AI animal tags narrow down candidate clips, the author samples one still frame per second from each clip, and feeds the sequence to Haiku 5.5 along with a text description of the house layout and camera positions. The model can infer where a person is likely headed when they leave the frame and track movement across consecutive clips — cheap and effective, per the author.
