Set regions using ESP32-Cam

Hello everyone!! I'm new and a student. I have created a project for our Task, which is to create a device with just using an Arduino Uno. My project that had been accepted by our professor is an Arduino Uno device that acts like a CCTV camera but its main function is to set up certain regions in a room, in which if a person (variable) goes to it, it will automatically record it. I know that the function of a camera is to pretty much capture the whole thing so why is this feature necessary? I don't know and I don't even know how my project got accepted so here I am. I am here just wandering if it's possible for an ESP32-Cam or even Arduino to make this feature (Setting regions) or any advice on how to do it? Thank you for your answers, in advance!!

so is it just a UNO or an ESP32 ?

What type of video quality do you need? recording great quality video won't work on an ESP32-Cam and a UNO is not a suitable platform for anything related to video recording.

Actually, both. Arduino Uno is one of the main requirements of our project, as our professor said, and I needed ESP32-Cam for the camera. Recording the variable's time in and time out in that region IS what I meant about the "recording", which is my fault for not adding the details. About the "regions", I was wandering if setting up like a region to a room that if someone (variable) walksthrough, it is the time that it will "record".

the ESP-CAM will get you a stream of images
you could run some code to try to detect something on an image and then move to the next frame...
not sure what the UNO has to do with it
