Major ANPR camera contract for Siemens ITS

Following more than seven months of trials, Austrian system integration company 7iD has placed an order with Siemens ITS for 175 Sicore automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) cameras. The cameras will be implemented by an international logistics operating company to provide correlated ANPR and RFID data of its approaching vehicles, with the aim of reducing wait times for drivers upon arrival at their logistics facilities before they are directed to their waiting/loading/unloading bay.

    Camera technology a flexible and cost-effective option
    Perceptions of machine vision being an expensive solution are being challenged by developments in both core technologies and ancillaries. Here, Jason Barnes and David Crawford look at the latest developments in the sector. A notable aspect of machine vision is the flexibility it offers in terms of how and how much data is passed around a network. With smart cameras, processing capabilities at the front end mean that only that which is valid need be communicated back to a central processor of any descripti
