Person Detection / People Detection sensors(i.e. AI Camera Person Detections) to trigger alarm?

[Hedda]

Can you add sensors for Person Detection as a sensor that can trigger alarm?

I have UniFi Protect (Ubiquiti's Camera Security System) and their AI Security Cameras (as well as their "AI Port") enable "Recognitions" features that include with Person Detection events that are exposed as entities in its integration for Home Assistant.

Person Detection recognition there basically act similar to a motion sensor but instead of "clear" the state is "On" when a person is detected and "Off" when a person is not detected.

The benefit of Person Detection for those systems is that it is less likley to give a false possitive compared to the motion sensor for the same Security Cameras (which will activate motion and trigger the alarm when a cat goes by).

• My request is generic, other users may benefit from it too.

Proposal

Add "Person detected" sensors to Alarmo.

Additional info

If possible make "Person detected" sensors function just like how motion sensors functions in Alarmo.

Assuming the entity you are referring to is a binary_sensor, it can already be configured as a sensor in alarmo.
Any binary_sensor is supported in alarmo.
Note that by default not all entities are showing up, you can click the “X items are hidden” banner to un-filter these.
