IP Network-enabled ANPR Cameras
1977 Microbus has launched its latest IP network-enabled Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras specially developed for ANPR recognition systems over LAN/WAN video networks. According to the company, adding embedded IP encoding inside the Rapier 25 and 50 cameras offers ANPR providers significantly lower implementation costs and flexible networking capabilities whilst maintaining all the remote setup capabilities for camera, lens and IR configuration. A Rapier IP camera can stream images from both the internal ANPR and overview cameras in MJPEG, MPEG4 and/or H.264 formats, and are perfect for locations where users require the ANPR computer to be remote from the camera or direct connection to a laptop/PC without the need for a video frame grabber.

Microbus says its cameras can also be used for statistical analysis and include options for virtual triggers, vehicle counting and vehicle classification. Traffic monitoring features such as direction of travel, stopping, loitering, entering and exiting from view are also able to be configured and flagged through IP messaging (metadata) to the ANPR computer or other devices on the network.

  • Options abound for road weather sensing
    September 6, 2017
    Meteorological organisations invest millions in super-computers to crunch data for ever-more accurate forecasts but inherent unpredictability means that other methods of alerting drivers and road authorities to fast-changing weather and highway conditions are essential. For years, static weather sensors to measure factors such as surface water, ice or high roadway temperatures have been embedded in highways to provide such data. But that is changing.
