EdgeAI Studio

# Track

# Introduction

Track is used to identify the path of objects in a video.

In traditional object detection of a computer vision model, people and objects are only perceived as a bounding box (a square). By performing path tracking, AI systems can develop a natural understanding of the movement of a person or any detected objects.

On EdgeAI Studio (opens new window), we introduce you the "Track" block, a ready-to-use feature to let you create a machine-learning model to track the path of any targeted objects in real-time.

# Examples

# 1. Path tracking of a customer

# Video Input

# Pipeline

To use Track block for tracking the path of a customer walking into a store, you can set up a pipeline as below:

TrackAndTrail

# 2. Dwelling time measurement

# Video Input

# Pipeline

To use Track block for tracking the duration of the dwelling time of each customer in a designated area from a video input, you can set up a pipeline as below with the help of Dwell block:

# How to draw a designated area for tracking?

Dwell Block Example

# Results

DETAILS

The duration is in millisecond by default where n refers to the number of tracked people or objects.

# 3. Track and count

# Video Input

# Pipeline

To count the number of customers or people walking into a designated area from a video input, you can set up a pipeline as below using Track, Trail and Count blocks:

People Counting Example

# How to draw a designated area for counting?

# 1. Draw a line to separate between Area A and Area B

Step 1

# 2. Continue with the second and third edge of Area A

Step 2

# 3. The fourth edge will be completed automatically where Area A is defined and shown on the Count block

Step 3

# 4. Area B is set automatically to the opposite side of Area A defined by the first line

Step 4

# 5. n represents the number of people/objects from Area B to Area A, while m represents the number of people/objects from Area A to Area B

Step 4

TIP

If any objects or people enter into either Area A or Area B without crossing the designated line defined in the Count block (in other words turn back without going into the other area), it will not be counted.

This model is only available in Business and Enterprise versions.
