Enabling AI on Blue Iris

AI is very useful to eliminate false alerts and recognise objects. To use it, we recommend to have any Nvidia GPU. Our preferable is RTX A2000.

Please check this article on how to install CodeProject AI in your PC: https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/5358543/FAQ-Blue-Iris-and-CodeProject-AI-Server


Once CodeProject AI is installed, it should be enabled and visible in Settings -> AI:

  1. To enable it on camera, go to Camera settings -> Record Tab -> Select Video: When Alerted.

2. Go to Alert tab and check Confirm the alert with AI. Below are examples:

3. On the same Alert tab, click button On Alert… (we will configure blue iris to send alert images and detected objects to camlocus)

Set Action

That’s it, your camera is now configured to verify motion detection with AI. On camlocus you will see what object was detected as well.
