Karen Automatic Number Plate Recognition (or as frequently called ‘number plate recognition’) is a special form of optical character recognition (OCR). License plate recognition system (LPRS) is a type of technology, mainly software, that enables computer systems to read automatically the registration number (license number) of vehicles from digital pictures. Reading automatically the registration number means transforming the pixels of the digital image into the ASCII text of the number plate.
While license plate recognition has special type of OCR technology, today optical character recognition (OCR) technology is considered strictly a type of technology – mainly software – that lets you scan paper documents and turn them into electronic, editable files. From the LPR/ANPR point of view the image quality is always key factor. Capturing of fast moving vehicles needs special technique to avoid motion blur which can decrease the recognition accuracy dramatically. To ensure the right image quality short shutter time need to be used with the combination of high-power illumination. The best illumination is the IR, because the retro-reflective plates reflect this kind of light very well and it is undetectable for the human eye. This combination works fine during day and night and provides constant good image quality.
The Karen Automated Number Plate Recognition Systems
Automated Number Plate Recognition System allows the vehicle license plates to be read, stored and analyzed. The Automated Number Plate Recognition System consists of an image based number plate recognition unit and central server applications. The Automated Number Plate unit contains a high-resolution camera and embedded processor platform within an IP66 enclosure with built-in IR illumination unit. System is able to detect the vehicle’s license number plate, brand and color in any weather condition within 7/24. Due to the functions of the system, these data can be transferred to a desired remote location either wired or wirelessly. Easy Operation, Easy Installation and Easy Integration Highway Number Plate Recognition Systems in compact structure can be mounted on roads, bridges, highways and art structures.
