What are LPR cameras and how do they work?

LPR cameras are advanced devices created to automatically identify and record vehicle number plates. Using Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology, these cameras can read number plates and convert them into digital data. This process facilitates traffic management and control, as well as security in various applications.

Their operation is based on their ability to capture high-resolution images of the number plates of vehicles passing through their field of view. This allows them to be stored, analysed and consulted at a later date, offering an accurate and automated tool for vehicle identification.

It is worth noting that these license plate reading cameras, like other IP cameras, are designed to operate in a variety of environmental conditions, including light and weather variations, and are effective both day and night. They not only improve traffic management, but are also crucial for security in public and private facilities, detecting vehicles in irregular situations and controlling access in car parks.

Key benefits of number plate cameras

In the following, we will outline the most important points of licence plate cameras, highlighting the advanced technologies that contribute to improved traffic management and road safety.

Improved road safety: Vehicle identification and registration enables the identification and registration of vehicles in irregular situations, making a significant contribution to road surveillance and control. This includes the detection of stolen vehicles, the identification of unlicensed drivers and the monitoring of vehicles involved in criminal activities.
Efficiency in a variety of conditions: Designed to operate in a wide range of environmental conditions, these cameras ensure optimal performance both day and night, as well as in adverse weather conditions such as rain, snow or fog.
Automation and accuracy: Advanced Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology converts number plates into digital data, enabling accurate and automatic registration of vehicles. This significantly reduces human error and increases data processing efficiency.
Image metadata analysis: In addition to reading number plates, these cameras can analyse the metadata of the captured images. This makes it possible to quickly locate specific vehicles according to their make, colour or type (van, car, motorbike, etc.), facilitating the work of traffic authorities and administrators.
Whitelist and blacklist management: Cameras can manage whitelists and blacklists to control access to specific premises. If a vehicle is not on the white list or is on the black list, the system can trigger a series of automatic actions, such as sending an email, push notification, activating alarms or linking with PTZ cameras.

We can highlight that, thanks to artificial intelligence, this technology is now more secure and efficient. AI ensures that number plate readings are only taken when they are on a real vehicle, preventing fraud and improving access control security.
