I don't have yet any preferences. Cheap, easy to set up, secure. What do you use and can recommend?

I was planning on an Intel CPU that was recommended when I was putting my list together which I was told could handle detection up on to 8 cameras without issue (so I could skip the Coral all together)

Handle is much different than efficiently calculate.

Sure, I just figured if it worked well with 8 it would work well with 4 + 1 unoptimized stream. If it doesn't work, I can just spend $40 on a coral
