## Description

This project is a computer vision-based security platform designed for real-time property surveillance and automated threat detection. It integrates live video stream management with neural network processing to monitor, track, and identify individuals within a monitored environment.

The system distinguishes itself through local identity management, which allows users to train classifiers on specific individuals and store facial embeddings directly on the local system. By combining this biometric analysis with event-driven logic, the platform can differentiate between known persons and unknown intruders, triggering automated alerts or physical hardware responses when unauthorized activity is detected.

The platform provides a centralized web-based dashboard that facilitates the management of multiple network cameras and the delivery of live video feeds. It utilizes persistent communication channels to ensure low-latency updates and notifications, supporting continuous monitoring of workspaces or residential properties.
