The car plates recognition is one of the most frequent requests in the world of video surveillance, however it is not an easy task for the cameras and requires specific technologies. Designed for car plate capturing, these ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) cameras provide 100% readable characters in all conditions . They are excellent cameras for road monitoring, but you can also use them on an access road to a company or a service station, adding a very important value to the system. You can use these ANPR cameras with ordinary NVRs or with any onvif OCR software.
See below some image captures from a real installation.

With Anti-Dazzle algorithm

These cameras come with an anti-glare system that allows you to monitor license plates even at night , when normal cameras are blinded by vehicle headlights. For this reason, in night mode, these cameras provide a very dark image that makes the license plate stand out, illuminated in the dark by the LEDs of the camera. Watch here a demo clip which have been recorded with these ANPR cameras and an ordinary NVR.

Vehicle speed up to 180 Km/h

These cameras do not use automatic shutter, like normal cameras, but fixed shutter. With our configuration software you can set the shutter speed according to the speed of the vehicles . With extra fast shutter speed you can capture car plates up to 180 km/h. If you expect the vehicles not to move so fast, you should set a slower shutter speed, so that the general image will be brighter at night. .

30 meters adjustable IR with ICR

With low light, or at night, these cameras shoot the license plates thanks to their infrared illuminator which emits an invisible light that does not bother the drivers. The maximum capturing distance is 30 meters. The power of the LEDs can be adjusted by the built-in LCD screen to match the target distance. The cameras in this range are equipped with high-performance LEDs that provide brigth illumination while maintaining relatively low power consumption. The LEDs turn on automatically below 10 lux. In night mode the camera shoots in Black White thanks to a mechanical removal of the IR filter (ICR).

6 - 22 mm. motor zoom

When reading license plates, perfect lens adjustment is essential. For this reason, the RY series cameras are equipped with a motorized zoom lens that you can remotely control with a PC or NVR. The 6-22 mm. motor zoom lens come with autofocus to automatically focus the license plate, but, if you can also remotely tune the focus to match the target distance. Rememeber that a license plate camera must be focused to the road, so it is not meant for ordinary surveillance. You can adjust the zoom lens to monitor up to 3 lanes.

Easy to install on the road side

These cameras are mounted on the roadside using the wall bracket included. You can use them to monitor both the front or rear license plates with an optimal reading distance between 5 and 30 meters . When choosing the best position for your camera, consider that the optimal angle with respect to the vehicles direction is around 30°. Such an angle is recommended to reduce the night glare of the headlights. Remember to adjust the tilt of the camera so that vehicles stay in the frame for as long as possible and prevent the sun from facing the camera, at sunrise or sunset. For good nighttime operation, you must avoid the presence of light sources near the camera, because they could prevent the LEDs from turning on.

POE power for one cable wiring

All cameras in this range support POE power via the network cable (IEEE 802.3af Class 3). To make them work, all you have to do is connect them via network cable to a POE switch or a POE NVR. If for some reason you cannot take advantage of POE power, for example if you use the camera with a wifi bridge, you can power the camera with a 12VDC power adapter. Only one network cable is needed to install our ANPR IP cameras. In this picture you can see the connection cable that comes out of the camera, with the RJ45 network jack and the 12V auxiliary power connector.

Mounting accessories

These ANPR cameras are supplied in an IP66 waterproof casing which include a cooling fan and a wall mounting bracket . If you need to install them on a pole or a corner, you can purchase the mounting accessories for our speed dome cameras that you can easily adapt by drilling the plate.
