License Plate Recognition

Camera Support & Detection
ipConfigure’s LPR software has been rigorously tested on both moving and stationary vehicles to ensure quick and easy detection of license plate characters. Utilizing the Axis P1436 or Bosch EX-85 network camera, ipConfigure’s LPR software has the capability of accurately capturing license plates at speeds up to 40 mph (65 kph) depending on the camera’s angle and lighting conditions.

LPR Development
ipConfigure continues to differentiate itself from competitors by remaining nimble, accessible, and flexible. Rather

than OEMing our license plate recognition algorithm from a third party, ipConfigure’s LPR software was developed in-house by its own vision lab scientists. By evolving the technology ourselves, we are able to offer customers better support and improve the functionality based on their input.

Color Imaging
The use of IR illumination has been the industry standard for capturing license plate tags. The major draw back with IR illumination is the fact that some states do not utilize reflective plates. By the use of color imaging and standard megapixel IP cameras, ipConfigure’s LPR cannot

only capture license plates data, but other valuable information like the vehicles make, model, color, and in some cases the image of the driver.

Watch List
The ability to create a Watch List becomes a powerful tool inside ipConfigure’s LPR software. Red flag warnings alert operators as tags are detected and compared against user-defined watch list. There is no limit to the number of plates that can be stored in the database for detection. Actionable I/O events and email notifications can be triggered automatically when a suspect plate has been identified.
