# Global object configuration. Applies to all cameras
# unless overridden at the camera levels.
# Keys must be valid labels. By default, the model uses coco (https://dl.google.com/coral/canned_models/coco_labels.txt).
# All labels from the model are reported over MQTT. These values are used to filter out false positives.
# min_area (optional): minimum width*height of the bounding box for the detected person
# max_area (optional): maximum width*height of the bounding box for the detected person
# threshold (optional): The minimum decimal percentage (50% hit = 0.5) for the confidence from tensorflow

    ## Optional mask. Must be the same dimensions as your video feed.
    ## The mask works by looking at the bottom center of the bounding box for the detected
    ## person in the image. If that pixel in the mask is a black pixel, it ignores it as a
    ## false positive. In my mask, the grass and driveway visible from my backdoor camera 
    ## are white. The garage doors, sky, and trees (anywhere it would be impossible for a 
    ## person to stand) are black.

    # size: size of the region in pixels
    # x_offset/y_offset: position of the upper left corner of your region (top left of image is 0,0)
    # Tips: All regions are resized to 300x300 before detection because the model is trained on that size.
    #       Resizing regions takes CPU power. Ideally, all regions should be as close to 300x300 as possible.
    #       Defining a region that goes outside the bounds of the image will result in errors.
