Abstract : Unraveling meaningful pattern form the video offers a solution to many real-world problems, especially surveillance and security. Detecting and tracking an object under the area of video surveillance, not only automates the security but also leverages smart nature of the buildings. The objective of the manuscript is to detect and track assets inside the building using vision system. In this manuscript, the strategies involved in asset detection and tracking are discussed with their pros and cons. In addition to it, a novel approach has been proposed that detects and tracks the object of interest across all the frames using correlation coefficient. The proposed approach is said to be significant since the user has an option to select the object of interest from any two frames in the video and correlation coefficient is calculated for the region of interest. Based on the arrived correlation coefficient the object of interest is tracked across the rest of the frames. Experimentation is carried out using the 10 videos acquired from IP camera inside the building.
