    image: docker.io/groundlight/monitoring-notification-server-frontend:latest
    ports:
      - "3000:3000"

  backend:
    image: docker.io/groundlight/monitoring-notification-server-backend:latest
    ports:
      - "8000:8000"
    devices:
      - /dev/video0:/dev/video0
      - /dev/video1:/dev/video1
      - /dev/video2:/dev/video2
      - /dev/video3:/dev/video3
    privileged: true
    volumes:
      - /dev/bus/usb:/dev/bus/usb
  1. Run the following command in your project directory:
docker-compose up
  1. If installed locally, open http://localhost:3000 in your browser. If installed on a remote device, replace localhost with the IP address of your device. You should see the following page:
