Camera & Remote Monitoring Integration Specification

NaviDocs Boat Peace-of-Mind System

Agent ID: S2-H04 Task: Camera & Remote Monitoring Integration (STICKY!) Status: Complete Date: 2025-11-13


Executive Summary

This specification describes a comprehensive camera and remote monitoring system for boat owners, enabling "is my boat OK?" peace of mind through Home Assistant integration, real-time alerts, snapshot galleries, and optional computer vision for equipment detection. The system prioritizes mobile-first UI, seamless integration with existing NaviDocs architecture, and security hardening for both webhook endpoints and snapshot storage.


1. Home Assistant Integration Architecture

1.1 Webhook Architecture (NaviDocs ← HA Events)

Flow Diagram:

Home Assistant Instance (on boat or cloud)
    ↓ (webhook POST)
NaviDocs Webhook Receiver (/api/webhooks/events/home-assistant)
    ↓ (validate signature + rate limit)
Event Bus (Redis pub/sub)
    ↓ (fan-out to handlers)
├─→ Snapshot Storage Service
├─→ Alert Notification Engine
├─→ Timeline Logger (IF.TTT audit trail)
└─→ WebSocket broadcast (real-time dashboard updates)

1.2 Webhook Receiver Endpoint

Endpoint: POST /api/webhooks/events/home-assistant

Authentication:

  • HA sends webhook with X-HA-Signature header (HMAC-SHA256)
  • NaviDocs validates signature against stored HA API token
  • Rate limiting: 100 events/minute per boat (prevents DDoS from compromised HA instance)
  • Tenant isolation: webhook must include boat_id + signature verification

Request Payload Schema:

{
  "boat_id": "boat-uuid-12345",
  "event_type": "motion_detected | battery_low | bilge_pump_triggered | camera_offline | network_interrupted | manual_snapshot_requested",
  "timestamp": "2025-11-13T14:32:00Z",
  "camera_id": "hikvision-deck-cam-1",
  "camera_name": "Deck Camera (Port)",
  "event_data": {
    "severity": "info | warning | critical",
    "message": "Motion detected on deck",
    "confidence": 0.95,
    "ai_detection": {
      "object_class": "person | boat | equipment | animal | vehicle",
      "confidence": 0.87
    },
    "battery_percentage": 45,
    "signal_strength": -65,
    "location_zone": "deck | salon | galley | helm | engine_room | bilge | hull"
  },
  "snapshot_url": "https://ha-instance.local:8123/api/camera_proxy/camera.deck_camera?token=xxx",
  "video_url": "rtsp://user:pass@ha-instance.local:554/stream1",
  "metadata": {
    "ha_integration": "hikvision | reolink | generic_onvif",
    "camera_model": "Hikvision DS-2CD2043G0-I",
    "firmware_version": "V5.4.41"
  }
}

Response (Success):

{
  "status": "received",
  "event_id": "if://event/navidocs/boat-123/motion-2025-11-13-14-32-00",
  "processing_status": "queued",
  "snapshot_storage_url": "https://navidocs-api.example.com/api/snapshots/{snapshot_id}",
  "alert_sent": true,
  "alert_channels": ["push_notification", "email"]
}

1.3 Supported Camera Brands & Integration

Primary Integration: Home Assistant Camera Platform

  • Automatically supports 50+ camera brands via HA plugins
  • Examples: Hikvision, Reolink, AXIS, Dahua, Netgear, Ubiquiti, Wyze

Integration Method:

  1. User installs Home Assistant (on Raspberry Pi or NUC in boat cabin)
  2. Adds camera integration in HA (simple YAML config)
  3. Creates webhook automation in HA:
    automation:
      - alias: "NaviDocs Motion Alert"
        trigger:
          platform: state
          entity_id: binary_sensor.deck_motion_sensor
          to: "on"
        action:
          - service: rest_command.navidocs_webhook
            data:
              event_type: "motion_detected"
              camera_id: "deck-cam-1"
    
  4. NaviDocs webhook secret stored in HA configuration

Marine-Specific Cameras (Optional Integrations):

  • Cradlepoint: Cellular backup for internet connectivity
  • StarLink: High-latency satellite internet (HA can work over it)
  • Ubiquiti UniFi: Professional marine-grade wireless
  • Battery monitoring: Victron SmartShunt feeds battery % to HA

1.4 MQTT Broker Integration (Real-Time Events)

Optional: For boats already using MQTT infrastructure

MQTT Topics:

navidocs/{boat_id}/camera/{camera_id}/snapshot
navidocs/{boat_id}/alerts/{alert_type}/{severity}
navidocs/{boat_id}/status/online
navidocs/{boat_id}/telemetry/battery_voltage

Message Format:

{
  "boat_id": "boat-uuid",
  "camera_id": "deck-cam-1",
  "timestamp": "2025-11-13T14:32:00Z",
  "event": "motion_detected",
  "confidence": 0.95,
  "snapshot_id": "snap-uuid-xxx",
  "processing": "queued"
}

Bridge Design:

  • HA MQTT integration sends to broker
  • NaviDocs MQTT subscriber processes events (same as webhook, but async)
  • Fallback to webhook if MQTT unavailable (reliability)

2. Camera Snapshot Storage Schema

2.1 Database Table: camera_snapshots

Purpose: Store metadata + links to snapshot files, enable gallery queries with time-series retrieval

Schema:

CREATE TABLE camera_snapshots (
  -- Primary Key
  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,  -- uuid: snap-boat123-2025-11-13-14-32-00

  -- Foreign Keys & Ownership
  boat_id TEXT NOT NULL,  -- Links to boat

  INDEX idx_retention (boat_id, marked_for_deletion, deletion_scheduled_at),
  FULLTEXT INDEX idx_search (event_message, detected_equipment)
);

2.2 Computer Vision Analysis Table

Purpose: Store ML model inference results separately for querying without loading image files

CREATE TABLE camera_cv_analysis (
  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
  snapshot_id TEXT NOT NULL UNIQUE,
  boat_id TEXT NOT NULL,

  -- Model Information
  model_name TEXT,  -- 'YOLOv8-boat-equipment', 'YOLOv8-person-detection'
  model_version TEXT,
  inference_time_ms FLOAT,

  -- Detection Results (JSON because variable number of objects)
  detections JSON,  -- [
                    --   {class: "tender", confidence: 0.94, bbox: [x, y, w, h]},
                    --   {class: "person", confidence: 0.87, bbox: [x, y, w, h]},
                    --   {class: "electronics", confidence: 0.78, bbox: [x, y, w, h]}

  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  FOREIGN KEY (snapshot_id) REFERENCES camera_snapshots(id),
  FOREIGN KEY (boat_id) REFERENCES entities(id),
  INDEX idx_detections (boat_id, created_at DESC)
);

2.3 Auto-Cleanup Policy

Retention Rules:

  • Default: Keep 30 days
  • Critical/Alert snapshots: Keep 90 days
  • Manual snapshots (user bookmarked): Keep indefinitely
  • Thumbnail index: Keep forever (small file size)

Cleanup Implementation:

-- Daily cleanup job (BullMQ scheduled job)
SELECT * FROM camera_snapshots
WHERE boat_id = $1
  AND marked_for_deletion = FALSE
  AND snapshot_timestamp < DATETIME('now', '-30 days')
  AND event_type NOT IN ('critical', 'alert')
  AND id NOT IN (
    SELECT snapshot_id FROM bookmarks WHERE entity_type = 'snapshot'
  );

-- Mark for deletion (soft delete, 7-day grace period)
UPDATE camera_snapshots
SET marked_for_deletion = TRUE, deletion_scheduled_at = DATETIME('now', '+7 days')
WHERE id IN (...);

-- Hard delete after grace period
DELETE FROM camera_snapshots
WHERE marked_for_deletion = TRUE
  AND deletion_scheduled_at < DATETIME('now');

Storage Tier Strategy:

  • Hot tier (7 days): S3 Standard - frequently accessed
  • Warm tier (7-30 days): S3 Intelligent-Tiering
  • Cold tier (30+ days): S3 Glacier (archive critical/alert photos)

2.4 Thumbnail Generation

Automatic Thumbnail Pipeline:

// server/workers/snapshot-thumbnail-worker.js
module.exports = {
  async processSnapshotThumbnail(jobData) {
    const { snapshotId, storagePath } = jobData;

    // 1. Download original from S3
    const originalImage = await s3.getObject(storagePath);

    // 2. Generate thumbnails (multiple sizes for responsive mobile)
    const thumbnails = {
      'thumb-140w': await sharp(originalImage)
        .resize(140, 105, { fit: 'cover' })
        .jpeg({ quality: 75 })
        .toBuffer(),
      'thumb-280w': await sharp(originalImage)
        .resize(280, 210, { fit: 'cover' })
        .jpeg({ quality: 80 })
        .toBuffer(),
      'thumb-560w': await sharp(originalImage)
        .resize(560, 420, { fit: 'cover' })
        .jpeg({ quality: 85 })
        .toBuffer()
    };

    // 3. Upload thumbnails to S3
    for (const [name, data] of Object.entries(thumbnails)) {
      await s3.putObject(`${storagePath.replace('.jpg', '')}-${name}.jpg`, data);
    }

    // 4. Update database with thumbnail paths
    await db.query(
      'UPDATE camera_snapshots SET thumbnail_path = ? WHERE id = ?',
      [`${storagePath.replace('.jpg', '')}-thumb-280w.jpg`, snapshotId]
    );
  }
};

5. Computer Vision Integration Proposal

5.1 Responding to S2-H02 Inventory Detection Request

Integration Approach: Hybrid Manual + Camera-Assisted Detection

The camera system can significantly enhance inventory tracking through computer vision. Rather than replacing manual entry, cameras provide:

  1. Auto-Detection of High-Value Items:

    • Tender/Zodiac boats (theft detection)
    • Marine electronics (radar, chartplotter, VHF)
    • Safety equipment (life rafts, flotation devices)
    • Expensive deck equipment (anchors, winches)
  2. Confidence-Based Workflow:

    • High confidence (>90%): Auto-populate inventory suggestion
    • Medium confidence (75-90%): Show to user for verification
    • Low confidence (<75%): Flag for manual review
  3. Snapshot-to-Inventory Pipeline:

    Camera snapshot received
      ↓ (CV analysis)
    Equipment detected (tender: 94% conf)
      ↓ (exceeds threshold)
    Create inventory suggestion
      ↓ (show to user)
    User reviews + confirms
      ↓ (links to inventory item)
    Snapshot tagged with inventory ID
    

5.2 CV Model Selection

Recommended Model Stack:

Primary: YOLOv8 Custom Fine-Tuning

  • Pre-train on COCO dataset (general objects)
  • Fine-tune on marine equipment photos
  • Target classes:
    • tender (Zodiac, Rib, Dinghy)
    • person (intruder detection)
    • radar_antenna
    • chartplotter
    • solar_panels
    • outboard_motor
    • anchor
    • life_raft
    • vhf_antenna
    • instrument_cluster

Fallback: YOLO-Marine (Open Source)

  • Pre-trained specifically for boat equipment
  • Ready-to-use, no fine-tuning needed
  • Covers basic marine object classes

Optional: Seasonal Anomaly Detection

  • Track equipment presence over time
  • Alert if tender suddenly missing (theft detection)
  • Alert if solar panels covered (weather damage)
  • Alert if hatch left open (security/weather risk)

5.3 CV Processing Architecture

Inference Location Options:

Option A: Edge Computing (Recommended for Boats)

Home Assistant Instance
  → YOLOv8 inference (on-device)
  → Send results + snapshot to NaviDocs
  → Benefit: No internet needed for detection
  → Cost: Requires HA instance with GPU (NUC + RTX 4060 ~€500)

Option B: Cloud Processing (Simpler)

Snapshot → NaviDocs
  → Queue to CV worker
  → Run YOLOv8 on backend (GPU instance)
  → Store results in cv_analysis table
  → Benefit: No hardware cost, scalable
  → Cost: Latency (30-60s), internet bandwidth

Option C: Hybrid (Best Balance)

Boat with Home Assistant + GPU NUC:
  → Run YOLOv8 locally (instant results)
  → Send results + snapshot to NaviDocs
  → NaviDocs validates results (optional re-inference)

Boat with Home Assistant only (no GPU):
  → Send snapshot to NaviDocs
  → NaviDocs runs YOLOv8 on backend
  → Return results to app

Recommended Implementation: Hybrid approach

  • HA runs YOLOv8 if available (instant)
  • NaviDocs re-runs on backend for verification (audit trail)
  • Mobile app gets both local + server results

5.4 Inventory Detection Integration

Database Schema Update (extends camera_snapshots):

ALTER TABLE camera_snapshots ADD COLUMN (
  ai_detection_enabled BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
  detected_equipment TEXT,  -- JSON array of detected items
  equipment_suggestions JSON  -- [{item_class: "tender", confidence: 0.94, inventory_match: "inv-tender-001"}]
);

CREATE TABLE camera_equipment_detections (
  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
  snapshot_id TEXT NOT NULL,
  boat_id TEXT NOT NULL,

  -- Detection metadata
  equipment_class TEXT,  -- 'tender', 'radar', 'chartplotter', etc.
  confidence REAL,
  bounding_box JSON,  -- {x, y, width, height} normalized coords

  -- Inventory linking
  suggested_inventory_id TEXT,  -- FK to boat_inventory
  user_confirmed BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,
  confirmed_at DATETIME,
  confirmed_by_user_id TEXT,

  -- Historical tracking
  first_detected DATETIME,
  last_detected DATETIME,
  detection_count INTEGER,  -- How many times seen in photos

  -- Anomaly detection
  is_missing BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE,  -- Not seen in last N days
  days_since_last_seen INTEGER,

  created_at DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  FOREIGN KEY (snapshot_id) REFERENCES camera_snapshots(id),
  FOREIGN KEY (boat_id) REFERENCES entities(id),
  FOREIGN KEY (suggested_inventory_id) REFERENCES boat_inventory(id),
  INDEX idx_boat_class (boat_id, equipment_class, last_detected DESC),
  INDEX idx_missing (boat_id, is_missing)
);

Inventory Suggestion Workflow:

// server/services/cv-analysis.service.js

async function analyzeSnapshotForInventory(snapshotId, boatId) {
  // 1. Run CV inference
  const detections = await runYOLOv8(snapshotId);

  // 2. Filter high-confidence equipment
  const equipmentDetections = detections.filter(
    d => BOAT_EQUIPMENT_CLASSES.includes(d.class) && d.confidence > 0.75
  );

  // 3. Match against existing inventory
  const suggestions = [];
  for (const detection of equipmentDetections) {
    // Find similar items in inventory
    const existingItems = await db.query(
      'SELECT * FROM boat_inventory WHERE boat_id = ? AND category = ?',
      [boatId, detection.class]
    );

    // If no match, create suggestion
    if (existingItems.length === 0) {
      suggestions.push({
        equipment_class: detection.class,
        confidence: detection.confidence,
        bounding_box: detection.bbox,
        action: 'CREATE_NEW_INVENTORY_ITEM'
      });
    } else if (existingItems.length === 1) {
      // Single match - auto-link
      suggestions.push({
        equipment_class: detection.class,
        confidence: detection.confidence,
        suggested_inventory_id: existingItems[0].id,
        action: 'LINK_EXISTING_ITEM'
      });
    } else {
      // Multiple possible matches - ask user
      suggestions.push({
        equipment_class: detection.class,
        confidence: detection.confidence,
        possible_matches: existingItems.map(i => ({id: i.id, name: i.item_name})),
        action: 'USER_CONFIRM_MATCH'
      });
    }
  }

  // 4. Store suggestions
  await db.query(
    'UPDATE camera_snapshots SET equipment_suggestions = ? WHERE id = ?',
    [JSON.stringify(suggestions), snapshotId]
  );

  // 5. Push notification to user (if high confidence)
  const highConfidenceSuggestions = suggestions.filter(s => s.confidence > 0.90);
  if (highConfidenceSuggestions.length > 0) {
    await notificationService.sendPush(boatId, {
      title: 'Equipment Detected',
      body: `Found ${highConfidenceSuggestions.length} item(s) in latest photo`,
      action: 'REVIEW_SUGGESTIONS'
    });
  }
}

5.5 Theft & Anomaly Detection

Missing Equipment Alert:

-- Daily job: Check if equipment not detected in past 7 days
SELECT equipment_class, COUNT(*) as detection_count
FROM camera_equipment_detections
WHERE boat_id = 'boat-123'
  AND is_missing = FALSE
  AND last_detected < DATE('now', '-7 days')
GROUP BY equipment_class;

-- For each missing item:
-- 1. Update is_missing = TRUE
-- 2. Send alert: "Tender not detected in 7 days - check boat"
-- 3. Suggest marina inspection

Anomaly Scoring:

# Historical baseline: avg objects detected per snapshot
baseline_objects = 45  # Historical average

# Current snapshot
current_objects = 12

# Anomaly score
anomaly_score = 1 - (current_objects / baseline_objects)  # 0.73 (unusual!)

# Alert if anomaly_score > 0.6 (60% fewer objects than baseline)
if anomaly_score > 0.6:
  send_alert("Unusual activity: boat looks different", severity="warning")

6. Security & Rate Limiting

6.1 Webhook Authentication & Validation

HMAC-SHA256 Signature Validation:

// server/routes/webhooks.js

async function validateHomeAssistantWebhook(req, res, next) {
  const signature = req.headers['x-ha-signature'];
  const boatId = req.body.boat_id;

  if (!signature || !boatId) {
    return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Missing signature or boat_id' });
  }

  // 1. Retrieve HA API token from database
  const boat = await db.query('SELECT ha_api_token FROM entities WHERE id = ?', [boatId]);
  if (!boat) {
    return res.status(403).json({ error: 'Boat not found' });
  }

  // 2. Calculate expected signature
  const bodyString = JSON.stringify(req.body);
  const expectedSignature = crypto
    .createHmac('sha256', boat.ha_api_token)
    .update(bodyString)
    .digest('hex');

  // 3. Constant-time comparison (prevent timing attacks)
  if (!crypto.timingSafeEqual(Buffer.from(signature), Buffer.from(expectedSignature))) {
    return res.status(401).json({ error: 'Invalid signature' });
  }

  // 4. Verify timestamp (prevent replay attacks)
  const eventAge = Date.now() - new Date(req.body.timestamp).getTime();
  const MAX_AGE_MS = 5 * 60 * 1000;  // 5 minutes
  if (eventAge > MAX_AGE_MS) {
    return res.status(400).json({ error: 'Event too old (replay attack?)' });
  }

  next();
}

6.2 Rate Limiting

Per-Endpoint Rate Limits:

// server/config/rate-limits.js

const rateLimits = {
  // Webhook: 100 events/minute per boat (normal HA automation)
  'POST /api/webhooks/events/home-assistant': {
    windowMs: 60 * 1000,
    max: 100,
    keyGenerator: (req) => req.body.boat_id,
    message: 'Too many camera events from this boat'
  },

  // Snapshot gallery: 60 requests/minute per user
  'GET /api/boats/:boat_id/snapshots': {
    windowMs: 60 * 1000,
    max: 60,
    keyGenerator: (req) => req.user.id,
    message: 'Too many gallery requests'
  },

  // Live feed: 10 stream connections/minute per user
  'GET /api/boats/:boat_id/live-feeds': {
    windowMs: 60 * 1000,
    max: 10,
    keyGenerator: (req) => req.user.id,
    message: 'Too many live stream requests'
  },

  // Storage upload: 50 uploads/hour per boat
  'POST /api/boats/:boat_id/snapshots/upload': {
    windowMs: 60 * 60 * 1000,
    max: 50,
    keyGenerator: (req) => req.body.boat_id,
    message: 'Snapshot upload quota exceeded'
  }
};

6.3 Image Delivery Security

S3 Signed URLs (Time-Limited Access):

// server/services/snapshot.service.js

async function getSnapshotUrl(snapshotId, boat_id, expiryMinutes = 10) {
  const snapshot = await db.query(
    'SELECT storage_path FROM camera_snapshots WHERE id = ? AND boat_id = ?',
    [snapshotId, boat_id]
  );

  if (!snapshot) {
    throw new Error('Snapshot not found');
  }

  // Generate signed URL (expires in 10 minutes)
  const url = await s3.getSignedUrl('getObject', {
    Bucket: 'navidocs-snapshots',
    Key: snapshot.storage_path,
    Expires: expiryMinutes * 60
  });

  return url;
}

Benefits:

  • S3 validates URL signature before serving
  • App never receives permanent URL (can't be shared)
  • Expires automatically (default 10 min)
  • No token stored in browser history

6.4 Tenant Isolation

Verify boat_id Ownership:

// server/middleware/authorize-boat.js

async function authorizeBoot(req, res, next) {
  const boatId = req.params.boat_id;
  const userId = req.user.id;

  // Check user has permission to this boat
  const permission = await db.query(
    `SELECT * FROM boat_permissions
     WHERE boat_id = ? AND user_id = ? AND permission_level IN ('owner', 'captain', 'viewer')`,
    [boatId, userId]
  );

  if (!permission) {
    return res.status(403).json({ error: 'Access denied to this boat' });
  }

  // Store in context for downstream middleware
  req.boatId = boatId;
  req.boatPermission = permission.permission_level;

  next();
}

Permission Levels:

  • owner: Full access (view, configure, delete snapshots)
  • captain: View access (gallery, live feeds, alerts)
  • viewer: Read-only (gallery, no configuration)

6.5 If.TTT Audit Trail

Every snapshot linked to audit entry:

CREATE TABLE audit_log (
  id TEXT PRIMARY KEY,
  boat_id TEXT NOT NULL,
  entity_type TEXT,  -- 'camera_snapshot', 'alert', 'inventory_suggestion'
  entity_id TEXT,
  action TEXT,  -- 'created', 'viewed', 'linked', 'deleted'
  performed_by TEXT,  -- user_id or 'home-assistant'
  timestamp DATETIME DEFAULT CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,
  signature TEXT,  -- Ed25519 signature for tamper detection
  hash TEXT,  -- SHA-256 hash of full event
  FOREIGN KEY (boat_id) REFERENCES entities(id),
  INDEX idx_boat_timestamp (boat_id, timestamp DESC)
);

Signature Generation:

const crypto = require('crypto');
const ed25519 = require('ed25519');

async function signAuditEvent(event, privateKey) {
  const eventString = JSON.stringify(event);
  const hash = crypto.createHash('sha256').update(eventString).digest('hex');
  const signature = ed25519.sign(Buffer.from(eventString), privateKey);

  return {
    ...event,
    hash,
    signature: signature.toString('hex'),
    signature_public_key: privateKey.publicKey
  };
}

  • Snapshots stored in S3 with 30-day retention
  • Gallery loads 20 snapshots in <2 seconds
  • Thumbnail generation completes in <10 seconds
  • CV detection identifies tender with >90% confidence
  • Rate limiting prevents abuse (100 events/min)
  • Signature validation prevents replay attacks
  • IF.TTT audit trail logged for every snapshot

User Experience:

  • "Is my boat OK?" quick check shows latest snapshot
  • Gallery filters work intuitively
  • CV suggestions linked to inventory with 1 tap
  • Alerts reach user in <30 seconds
  • Live feed available for main cabin camera

Security:

  • Zero unencrypted snapshots in storage
  • All APIs require authentication
  • Tenant isolation tested + documented
  • Rate limits prevent resource exhaustion
  • Signed URLs prevent URL sharing

Conclusion

This camera integration system provides boat owners with the peace-of-mind monitoring they need for a critical use case: "Is my boat OK when I'm not there?" By combining Home Assistant's flexibility, real-time webhook events, intelligent computer vision analysis, and mobile-first UI design, NaviDocs becomes indispensable to daily boat ownership.

The hybrid manual + camera-assisted inventory detection approach responds to S2-H02's needs while maintaining simplicity and high confidence levels. The security hardening prevents common webhook attack vectors (replay, signature forgery, rate-based DDoS).

Next: S2-H10 synthesizes all 11 agent specs into a unified technical architecture document.
