The system detects the presence of customers and captures images when a new customer enters the frame. It then sends an email notification with the captured image to a specified email address.

Features

  • Real-time video monitoring of a specified camera feed
  • Detection of new customers entering the frame using computer vision techniques
  • Capture of images when a new customer is detected
  • Email notification with the captured image to a specified email address
  • Clean-up of captured images after a specified time interval
