CLUSTER CAMERA-ALERTS-DETECTS · 17 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-01-22

Camera motion alert apps

This cluster consists of camera-monitoring applications that detect motion or activity and send alerts, with some variants adding object-specific detection for cats or people and crowding. The dated history before index start shows an isolated entry in April 2019, followed by entries in May 2025, November ​2025, January ​2026, and April ​2026 – a sparse presence until the recent months. The traction leader by activity signal is AI-Crowd-Detection-Surveillance-System(1 star, followed by NovaGuard(2 stars,and violation_detect(0 stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
