!!! example "SolutionResults"

```python
import cv2

from ultralytics import solutions

im0 = cv2.imread("path/to/img")

region_points = [(20, 400), (1080, 400), (1080, 360), (20, 360)]

counter = solutions.ObjectCounter(
    show=True,  # display the output
    region=region_points,  # pass region points
    model="yolo11n.pt",  # model="yolo11n-obb.pt" for object counting with OBB model.
    # classes=[0, 2],  # count specific classes i.e. person and car with COCO pretrained model.
    # tracker="botsort.yaml"  # Choose trackers i.e "bytetrack.yaml"
)
results = counter(im0)
print(results.in_count)  # display in_counts
print(results.out_count)  # display out_counts
