Let’s do an integration and upgrade!

TLDR; looking to DIY integrate alarm system with CCTV security cams and possibly home automation.

I bought a home with a Honeywell, Ademco vista 20 P system in place, and then had a local guy hook it up to his central station, service, and adjust some of the door sensors and motion sensors. Also installed was a four camera security system. With the Tigersecu dvr. One of the cameras shut down so I bought a cheap Wi-Fi camera on Amazon and install that just to keep track of that corner of the house. I was surprised and impressed by the recognition algorithm which recognizes certain cars, pets, people, and has an activation zone as well. All features that I don’t have currently on my security cam system, so now I am on the fence whether to upgrade the wired camera system to a wireless system, or to go all in and get an integrated system that would work with my Ademco alarm system.

Would it be possible to replace my current cameras and DVR with an upgrade that would have the recognition properties?

And of course I have a ring doorbell as well just to make things more random.

Any advice about integrating everything together? Of course, I would DIY this.
