Add the ability to define types for exclusion zones to either exclude or only include specific types

[JohannCR]

Say I need to detect "person" type objects and "dog" type objects with one Camera.
How can I make it so that dogs are only detected when in a specified zone, and persons detected anywhere in the frame ?

Thanks

Unfortunately you can't currently, but I don't see how it'd be a major task to amend the exclusion zones to have an optional "Types" array. This would require further development.

That would be great !

I work around this by adding additional cameras in SS. You can add the same camera multiple times and have a different camera name. In SynoAI you can set each camera to what you want it to do.
For example: You can have CAM1-person and CAM1-dogs. Both of these devices point to the same camera. In Synoai, you can modify the json for each camera for the detection zone for that object.

@JoeyJoe6 That's ingenious, but it requires an additional licence key to add the same camera twice, doesn't it ?

Unfortunally, yes it does use up another license.
