According to Videalert, the 2 megapixel camera utilises Sony digital signal processor technology for noise reduction and infrared sensitivity to capture images of reflective number plates up to 40 metres away.

The ANPR camera also features a full colour module which captures contextual images of vehicles in daylight and challenging light conditions.

Tim Daniels, sales and marketing director of Videalert, says the company’s MEV engineering hub facility allows Videalert to build and test multiple platforms concurrently to meet the requirements of fleet operators for single or multiple vehicles.
