## Description

This project is a computer vision pipeline that integrates object detection and tracking to monitor moving objects within video streams. It functions as an end-to-end analytics tool that processes video frames to identify, classify, and maintain the unique identity of objects as they move through a scene.

The system utilizes a combination of deep learning inference for detection and motion estimation to ensure temporal continuity. By pairing visual appearance descriptors with predictive motion modeling, it maintains object identities even during temporary occlusions or when spatial overlap is insufficient. The framework employs sequential processing to synchronize detection results with tracking logic, allowing for the consistent monitoring of movement patterns.

Beyond basic tracking, the software includes capabilities for quantifying activity within a video feed. It supports the calculation of total object or vehicle counts as they cross designated lines or enter specific areas. The implementation is structured as a development framework for building custom vision applications that interpret and extract data from dynamic environments.
