6626 Image Sensing Systems (ISS) has introduced what it claims is the fastest, most accurate automated licence plate recognition (ALPR) engine in the world with its 539 CitySync rapid plate recognition technology. The rapid plate recognition technology reads a licence plate numerous times and uses multiple advanced methods for both optical character recognition and plate finding for each plate read.

The system looks for objects and then initiates multiple processing techniques that run concurrently on vehicles travelling at speeds up to 190 km/h. ISS claims the technology delivers a state of the art engine that outperforms other recognition engines on the market.

 “The rapid plate recognition technology captures key licence plates in crime situations, parking and security access applications,” said Kris Tufto, CEO of Image Sensing Systems. “In several tests by multiple municipalities worldwide, our rapid plate recognition technology routinely read a higher percentage of plates than any other licence plate recognition system. This best-in-class technology can be the differentiator in making an arrest, earning ticket revenue, or securing a facility, for all law enforcement, parking and security organisations.”
