# Overlay Transformation Engine

The overlay transformation engine draws an overlay that can contain lines and shapes. The overlay shows information extracted by Media Server. For example, you can draw an outline around each detected face. When you write video to a rolling buffer, Media Server can add the overlay, so that you can show and hide it when the video is played in the OpenText Media Player.
