What it does
Multi-object tracking means spotting objects in each frame of a video and keeping track of which object is which as they move. BoxMOT provides building blocks for this.
It includes several well-known tracking methods that can be swapped in and out, and works with detections from other AI models such as YOLO. It also has tools to test and compare trackers.
There is a Python version and an optional faster C++ version.
Who it's for
Computer vision developers and researchers working with video.
