When comparing
YOLOv10 vs. YOLOv8 for CCTV footage, the choice depends on whether your priority is raw speed and efficiency (YOLOv10) or high detection accuracy, particularly for small or distant objects (YOLOv8).
YOLOv10 is faster and more efficient due to its NMS-free (Non-Maximum Suppression) design, making it ideal for edge devices and real-time, low-latency applications, while YOLOv8 is a more mature and versatile, robust model.

I just switched from YOLOv10s to YOLOv26s and I'm getting much faster detections, and on first glance, just as good accuracy. Nine cameras using built-in AI; no video board, just using UHD 730 graphics on my Intel I5-12400. The YOLO file I'm using is direct from the Ultralytics website. Just had to make a free account to convert the standard .pt file to .onnx, then renamed it from yolo26s.onnx to yolov26s.onnx and placed it in the same directory that the AImodelpack.exe extracts to.
