Insect Detect - Software for automated insect monitoring with a DIY camera trap system

Camera trap paper now published in PLOS ONE

The v1.7 release includes several new features and updates:

New features

• Add option to save full HQ frames at specified frequency, independent of detections (e.g. for training data collection) in 1ef2ded
• Add support for Witty Pi 4 L3V7 as alternative power management board to the PiJuice Zero in 230c14b
• Add utils package with modules providing utility functions to improve maintainability in 8217d5d
• Add option to set auto focus range (restrict auto focus to a minimum and maximum distance measured from camera) in d5ecf04
• Add option to store all captured data in an uncompressed .zip file in 5737451
• Add option to use bounding box coordinates from detections to set auto exposure region in 7d4eaf1
• Add installation instructions and example scripts to use the DepthAI SDK in 6968c1e
• Add option to save cropped detections with aspect ratio 1:1 (default) or with original variable aspect ratio in e803d7e and 1716baa

Important Updates

• Handle external shutdown trigger (e.g. pressing of button connected to Witty Pi while script is running) in 2690956
• Increase pipeline speed if full frames are saved additionally by using threading in 1ef2ded
• Optimize recording ID creation in 7d970d6
• Use ISO 8601 format for timestamps in 8217d5d
• Use new Sync node instead of Script node to synchronize HQ frames with tracker output in e3101c0
