Jetson Edge Counter (Production)

RTSP + YOLO TensorRT line-crossing counter for edge Jetson. Replaces MQTT frigate-counter on site.

Architecture

• Input: Direct LAN camera RTSP (low latency)
• Inference: YOLO11n .engine (TensorRT) on Jetson GPU
• Logic: Line crossing (ayam count, talenan closes batch) via batch_store.py
• Output: jetson_counter.db + current_batch.json
• Dashboard: Flask on port 5000

Batch lifecycle: talenan closes batch → idle until next ayam line cross (count starts at 1).
