Still works with frigate, although I've heard that modern (whatever that means) CPUs can do as good a job as the Coral TPU, making it somewhat redundant.

I ain't running it on a modern CPU though, so I'm happy with the Coral.

Anecdata: i5-6500 did recognition in about 15ms, Coral TPU (M2 variant) does it in about 7.5ms - so… probably could’ve done without it in hindsight…

Frigate's docs has some detection speeds listed: https://docs.frigate.video/frigate/hardware/#openvino .

I believe it also has an advantage of being able to run bigger models like YOLO-NAS. Going off Frigate+ documentation: https://docs.frigate.video/plus/#supported-detector-types
