Disclosed herein are apparatuses and methods for auto-configuring a region of interest (ROI) associated with a camera. In one implementation, a method comprises receiving image frames from a camera installed in the environment, wherein the ROI is located within the view of the image frames. The method includes tracking a plurality of persons in the image frames and determining a respective trajectory of movement for each person of the plurality of persons. The method further includes comparing each of the respective trajectories to one another and identifying, based on the comparing, a common trajectory shared by more than one person of the plurality of persons, wherein the common trajectory is not fully encompassed in the ROI. The method additionally includes updating the ROI to encompass the common trajectory, and includes configuring the updated ROI to be associated with new image frames from the camera.
