**Q:** What camera recording modes or schedules are supported? | **Q:** What camera recording modes or schedules are supported? | ||
- | **A:** Only continuous recording. Our position is that if the camera is enabled, all data from it should be saved and available at any time when it is needed.\\ | + | **A:** Only continuous recording. Our position is that if the camera is enabled, all data from it should be saved and available at any time when it is required. That is why the project is name is WolfRecorder and not WolfSometimesRecorder or WolfMaybeRecorder.\\ |

**Q:** What about video object recognition and motion detection? | **Q:** What about video object recognition and motion detection? | ||
**A:** Currently, we are developing the implementation of both object recognition and separation of video parts with motion using neural networks. But it will work only for already exported video files on demand. It is quite obvious that we are not ready to sacrifice all performance of the entire system to do this in real time.\\ | **A:** Currently, we are developing the implementation of both object recognition and separation of video parts with motion using neural networks.
