I presume the detection is so that it can send you a notification for “someone at your doorstep” vs “package at your doorstep”, not for when you are actually looking at the footage.
The point is that you don’t get alerted on motion, but instead on a detected object. Much less bullshit notifications when done this way. I use it on my frigate setup on ALL cameras (8 of them). Setup boundaries so I know when people walk into my front yard, when a car pulls into my driveway, outdoor cats are on my patio, somebody is in the pool… All sorts of stuff become useful here.
If it was just the normal “motion detected”… Every pigeon would set my cameras off for like 8 hours out of the day.
Other than a package what else should it expect to be left at your door?
“Bag of shit” detected?
I guess “person” would be a useful one.
For that time when you look at your motion detector alert footage, but are unsure whether you are looking at a package or a person?

In case they leave a person on your doorstep?
Anyway, that’s two we’ve identified now…
