How Does ANPR work?

ANPR CCTV captures and records number plates then displays them on a live feed. The software stores the data so that registrations can be searched for when needed. Our ANPR systems use the latest technology capable of scanning and reading thousands of number plates per hour. Infrared illumination capabilities are also available if your system needs to operate under different lighting conditions. Other security equipment, such as automatic gates, bollards and car barriers can also be connected to ANPR systems to offer greater security measures/automations at your site.

What Can it Do?

ANPR can also work in tandem with alarm outputs on the camera and NVR that enable certain processes to happen. For example, a vehicle pulls up at the security gate. The ANPR camera reads the number plate, and then through its database to see if its plate is on your list of "allowed" vehicles. If found in the "allowed" list, the system will then trigger the alarm to open up the gate. If the vehicle is not on the "allowed" list, a push notification will be sent to your mobile, alerting you that somebody has tried to enter the premises.

Why use an ANPR Camera?

If you need consistent number plate recognition, ANPR cameras have the ability to capture number plates day or night which is what makes them special, most ordinary CCTV cameras can pick up registrations during the day, but come to night they're no longer effective. This is due to how the camera is set up and its sensor type. The ANPR camera has the ability to pull out numerics and letters from a registration plate even if the vehicle has its full beam headlights on.
