Licenceplate recognition is a realm of computerised analytics and mass surveillance methods that use optical character recognition on images to read vehicle licence plates. Numberplate recognition is challenged by a number of concerns such as variable fonts, levels of reflection, speeds, lighting and many other conditions such as colour in countries like the Middle East where numberplates vary from one emirate to another.

SensorTec Security works with carefully selected manufacturers to ensure that maximum performance and operation efficiency are met when deploying an ANPR solution into any customer’s premises whether it is purely used for capturing of numberplates or as an access control solution to control entry and exit in varied environments like car parks and security related locations.

Depending on the location will certainly be a driving factor for which manufacturer will better serve the objectives in the design.

The ANPR can be used to store the images captured by the cameras as well as the text from the licenceplate.
