Show HN: I made a simple browser based security camera system

[libridev]

Recent occurrences... have brought to my attention that I should have security cameras setup.

I wanted to solve two problems: make use of what I currently had, two old android phones. And make sure I was not constantly streaming as it would take up too much Wi-Fi bandwidth. I couldn't find any decent open source solution.

Using just a simple static site along with YOLO11 and ntfy I was able to set up a very basic security camera system. Which does object detection locally and notifies me of detection events.

This is just an MVP, there are several things I am considering adding, like a backend for recording and saving video files/photos.
