IP Camera Motion Stack

VizMux

Lightweight, reliable motion detection for your IP cameras. No video recording, no heavy NVR — just fast snapshots when it matters.

Connects to any RTSP camera, runs server-side motion detection with configurable sensitivity and polygon masks, and outputs snapshot images on motion events. Pairs with PiyoAI for AI-powered object detection.

*Starting price. See full pricing & tiers.

**All security camera footage shown in the demo is mock data.

Everything You Need for Camera Motion Detection

Purpose-built to be lightweight and reliable. VizMux focuses on what it does best and delegates AI inference to PiyoAI.

Multi-Camera RTSP

Connect unlimited IP cameras via RTSP. Substream-first design keeps bandwidth and CPU usage low.

3 Detection Methods

EMA, MOG2, or KNN — each optimized for different environments. Selectable per camera with data-driven recommendations.

Polygon Masks

Draw exclusion zones directly in the browser. Normalized coordinates survive resolution changes.

Camera Scheduling

Set time windows per camera. Only detect motion when you need it — save resources and reduce noise.

Blue Iris Import

Already have a Blue Iris NVR? Import your cameras with one click — RTSP URLs auto-detected.

PiyoAI Integration

Pair with PiyoAI for YOLO object detection, MQTT alerts, and Telegram notifications. PiyoAI can run on a separate machine on your network.

Self-Update

One-click updates from inside the app using your download token. Progress tracking and automatic service restart.

IP Allowlist

Lock down access to trusted IPs only. Built-in ASGI middleware — no external firewall needed.

Stats & Analytics

24-hour charts, per-camera time series, automated tuning tips, and detection method recommendations.

See It in Action

A modern, dark-themed web UI that runs in any browser. Manage all your cameras from one place.

PIYOAI INTEGRATION

Correlation Analytics

When VizMux and PiyoAI run on the same machine, VizMux unlocks Correlation Analytics — a dedicated page that compares VizMux motion detections against PiyoAI inference results side by side.

  • Per-camera positive rate: how many motion events had real objects
  • Hourly time series comparing VizMux detections vs PiyoAI positives
  • Object class breakdown per camera per hour
  • Tune motion sensitivity based on actual detection accuracy

A 33% positive rate means 67% of motion events were false alarms — time to raise thresholds or add masks.

How It Works

VizMux handles motion detection. PiyoAI handles AI. A clean, reliable pipeline.

1. RTSP Ingest

Cameras stream low-bandwidth substreams to VizMux via RTSP

2. Motion Detection

EMA, MOG2, or KNN analyzes frames with masks and lightning guard

3. Snapshot Output

Motion triggers a JPEG snapshot + JSON sidecar to disk

4. PiyoAI (YOLO)

PiyoAI watches the output folder and runs AI object detection
