# Assets

An **asset** is a **physical object** (*that lacks smart connectivity*) you, as a user, wish to keep track of in the **SIM-ON** project space. For example assets, see the screenshot below.

In the **Assets view** you can see all the assets in the selected rooms or all Assets in the project.
