Cam Plus Feature: Detect Delivery Trucks

Would love a CAMPlus feature that, upon vehicle detection, compares the qualities of the vehicle to known others: I.E: Brown box truck: UPS, White Box Truck: FedEx… Could probably even incorporate machine learning to utilize the logos on the side of the vehicle.

From there, analytics can be built for subscribers relating to average delivery windows and such. Also could produce better alerting for package delivery.

Smart idea. Voted.

To work, I think this will need some new tags to train the AI, I could see this being really handy.

Identify specific vehicles with new Wyze Cam AI

I watched the latest Wyze video, and was very interested in the mention of the improved camera AI coming next year. If this isn’t already planned, I think it would be great if the AI could identify specific vehicles. In my case, allowing my driveway camera to detect when the mail truck is parked in front of our neighborhood mailbox, so I’d know when the mail was here. Thanks!

Found this thread from searching google for this idea. Vehicle detection would be amazing.

So, I just happened to get another “package” notification when a FedEx truck drove by, but didn’t stop (& shouldn’t have). To me it is quite annoying to get nonsensical notifications, so I for one hope they do not associate company logos with AI package notifications (I get enough notifications that aren’t accurate) but it appears they’re already doing some sort of logo triggering considering the truck didn’t stop, no one got out (no person detected) and obviously no one was carrying a package.

As a side note, you all can make an account and register your address with delivery companies directly to get automated notifications on any delivery, upcoming delivery, or delivery attempt to your address, so there’s not a good reason for Wyze to go through the trouble.

Wyze has a feature called “Friendly Faces”. Let’s call this “Friendly Trucks”.

How about using AI to easily recognize the logo on a delivery trucks. FEDEX, PRIME, UPS, USPS.
UPS also has brown truck color, USPS is white and blue, Amzon Prime has bluegreen etc.

Then in clude that in paid for intelligence to notify specific brand logo.

Since Wyze doesn’t have an mailbox sensor, it would be cool if we could flag our mailbox on a camera and use AI to detect if someone is in that area doing anything other than just passing by. As it sits right now, I have to turn off notification on my street because too much traffic (people and cars just passing by) triggers too many motion detections.

They somewhat do. I have the wyze home security, and a door sensor inside my mailbox, so when the mail arrives you can set triggers. I get an alert on my phone and an Alexa says the mail just arrived, but you could trigger the sprinkler to come on or something… Be creative. :slight_smile:

I also did one of these on our pool gate to let me know if that unexpectedly opens.

Have you tried the new Wyze AI Video Search and searched “Mail Truck”? Pretty slick IMO.

But can you setup alerts and automation based on that?

Not at this time… which is why we’re requesting those features in this wishlist topic.

That is Goal #2.

Custom vehicle detection

Would record an event and notify if a type of vehicle was detected. Would like to know if my trash or recycling was picked up, they use blue trucks. Maybe a event video could be manually tagged to define trash pickup. Might also be good for mail or package delivery.

We have accomplished this with Cam Unlimited Pro.

If the truck has a logo on it, it will literally say “Recycle-Pro” or something
