Full Motion ANPR Capture

Videofit employs the first full-motion anpr recognition engine and offers new levels of accuracy and functionality. For the first time it is now possible to capture images of drivers with repeatable consistency and without a separate video recorder. This is achieved by new ANPR-M technology that allows a recognition and up to 3 associated overview cameras to capture short movies at the moment of recognition.

If occupant images are critical for your project we would strongly recommend using more than one camera per lane, with each camera recording an anpr-m movie sequence to ensure success. Many projects, however, do not warrant a large number of cameras but, nonetheless, occupant images are still very desirable.

Using a well-positioned, wide dynamic range colour camera, Videofit will provide good occupant images under most lighting conditions without compromising recognition accuracy.

Here is a typical sequence showing anpr-m in action (right). The plate is detected in the first frame and, with most anpr systems, only the first or second image would be available to review. Videofit, however, continues recording to obtain images of the front seat occupants.

Obtaining good images of the driver and front seat passenger is subject to many factors. The camera needs to be well positioned with respect to the local light sources (including the sun) and will need a polarising filter to reduce windscreen glare. Best results are obtained during the day, when the weather is good and when the camera is positioned over the roadway. If you need advice on positioning anpr cameras please contact us.

Each camera can be set to record movies of up to 21 frames, of which 10 may be pre-event images. For even greater control the rate of capture can also be reduced which is particularly useful for slow moving traffic at site entrances and car park barriers.
