As the number of vehicles increases, license plate readers are essential for traffic monitoring, parking management and law enforcement. They provide a cost-effective way to accelerate criminal investigations by scanning plates faster and more accurately than manual methods. These systems automatically cross-reference passing vehicles against hotlists and databases to instantly detect stolen vehicles or persons of interest.
LPR systems use infrared light from a high speed camera to capture a clear image of a vehicle. Next, localization software can determine exactly where the plate is in the photo and the Optical Character Recognition turns the visual shapes into digital text. Finally, this text is put into a database to trigger an action like opening a gate or alerting the police.
Yes, license plate readers work at night using high-powered infrared illuminators and special sensors.
