A method for identifying the status of object within a region that includes designating at least one piece of equipment to be tracked and recording a history for the piece of equipment. The method may further include detecting when the piece of equipment is present within a region having a set of object restrictions. The method further includes comparing the set of object restrictions for the region to the history that is recorded for the piece of equipment that is present in the region to calculate a placement score with a hardware processor that indicates whether the history of the equipment is a match for the region that the equipment is present in. A sensory signal may be projector onto the equipment in an augmented reality setting, the sensory signal indicating whether the history of the equipment is a match for the region that the equipment is present in.
