Fish eye camera

Hello,
There were several about the fish eye camera. But no one really said if it works properly in Sighthound.
Do Sighthound recognizes people with these fish eye camera?

I have one of these over my main entrance. People detect can be a bit hit and miss unfortunately. It's mounted approx 2.4m high and sometimes struggles to detect people at even 2m distance. I think it has improved slightly into v3.0.x but still has a way to go. Overall success rate would be >95%, but considering those distances, it should be 100%.

The alternative for me is 2 or 3 separate cameras to replace this single fisheye, which isn't ideal. Overall I'm happy with the camera and eliminates my blind spots.

You're needing to use a internal dewarping camera. The ability to dewarp the image on output.
