# Tracklets

Tracklets are produced by the
[ObjectTracker](https://docs.luxonis.com/software-v3/depthai/depthai-components/nodes/object_tracker.md) node. They provide
tracking information for detected objects, including ROI, track ID, label, age, and status.

When the tracker receives detections with spatial data, each tracklet also carries spatialCoordinates (X/Y/Z in mm). velocity and
speed are optional 3D estimates in m/s and are empty when no valid spatial state is available, such as RGB-only tracking.

## Examples of functionality

 * [Object tracker on RGB](https://docs.luxonis.com/software-v3/depthai/examples/object_tracker/object_tracker.md)
 * [Object tracker on video](https://docs.luxonis.com/software-v3/depthai/examples/object_tracker/object_tracker_replay.md)
 * [ObjectTracker on depth with
   remap](https://docs.luxonis.com/software-v3/depthai/examples/object_tracker/object_tracker_remap.md)
