# Recognize Objects

To recognize objects

1. Create a new configuration to send to Media Server with the `process` action, or open an existing configuration that you want to modify.

2. In the `[Session]` section, add a new analysis task by setting the `EngineN` parameter. You can give the task any name, for example:

       [Session]
       Engine0=Ingest
       Engine1=ObjectClassRecognition

3. Create a new configuration section to contain the task settings, and set the following parameters:

   `Type` | The analysis engine to use. Set this parameter to `ObjectClassRecognition`.
   `Input` | (Optional) The image track to process. If you do not specify an input track, Media Server processes the first track of the correct type that is produced by the ingest engine.
   `Recognizer` | The recognizer to use. NOTE: To run object class recognition with a surveillance license, set the parameter `SurveillanceRecognizer` instead. With a surveillance license you can use only certain pre-trained recognizers.
   `DetectionThreshold` | (Optional) The minimum confidence score necessary for Media Server to output a result. Any result with a confidence score below the threshold is discarded.

   For example:

       [ObjectClassRecognition]
       Type=ObjectClassRecognition
       Recognizer=roadscene
       DetectionThreshold=30

   For more information about these parameters, refer to the Media Server Reference.

4. Save and close the configuration file. Micro Focus recommends that you save your configuration files in the location specified by the `ConfigDirectory` parameter.
