By default, Frigate only tracks `person`. To track additional object types, add them to the tracked objects list.
<ConfigTabs>
<TabItem value="ui">
1. Navigate to <NavPath path="Settings > Global configuration > Objects" />.
- Add the desired object types to the **Objects to track** list (e.g., `person`, `car`, `dog`)
To override the tracked objects list for a specific camera:
1. Navigate to <NavPath path="Settings > Camera configuration > Objects" />.
- Add the desired object types to the **Objects to track** list
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="yaml">
```yaml
objects:
track:
- person
- car
- dog
```
To override at the camera level:
```yaml
cameras:
front_door:
objects:
track:
- person
- car
```
</TabItem>

## Filtering Objects
Object filters help reduce false positives by constraining the size, shape, and confidence thresholds for each object type. Filters can be configured globally or per camera.
<ConfigTabs>
<TabItem value="ui">
Navigate to <NavPath path="Settings > Global configuration > Objects" />.
| **Object filters > Person > Min Area** | Minimum bounding box area in pixels (or decimal for percentage of frame) |
| **Object filters > Person > Max Area** | Maximum bounding box area in pixels (or decimal for percentage of frame) |
| **Object filters > Person > Min Ratio** | Minimum width/height ratio of the bounding box |
| **Object filters > Person > Max Ratio** | Maximum width/height ratio of the bounding box |
| **Object filters > Person > Min Score** | Minimum score for the object to initiate tracking |
| **Object filters > Person > Threshold** | Minimum computed score to be considered a true positive |
To override filters for a specific camera, navigate to <NavPath path="Settings > Camera configuration > Objects" />.
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="yaml">
```yaml
objects:
filters:
person:
min_area:5000
max_area:100000
min_ratio:0.5
max_ratio:2.0
min_score:0.5
threshold:0.7
```
To override at the camera level:
```yaml
cameras:
front_door:
objects:
filters:
person:
min_area:5000
threshold:0.7
```
</TabItem>
</ConfigTabs>
## Object Filter Masks
Object filter masks prevent specific object types from being detected in certain areas of the camera frame. These masks check the bottom center of the bounding box. A global mask applies to all object types, while per-object masks apply only to the specified type.
<ConfigTabs>
<TabItem value="ui">
Navigate to <NavPath path="Settings > Camera configuration > Masks / Zones" /> and select a camera. Use the mask editor to draw object filter masks directly on the camera feed. Global object masks and per-object masks can both be configured from this view.
