ISS launches rapid plate recognition

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 CitySync rapid plate recognition technology. The system 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

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 CitySync rapid plate recognition technology. The system 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.

“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,” he said, adding that the technology can be the differentiator in making an arrest, earning ticket revenue, or securing a facility, for law enforcement, parking and security organisations.

    The Southcote Lane site in the UK town of Reading is a notorious shortcut for motorists travelling into the town centre. The resultant congestion at the end of the bus lane, when motorists tried to re-enter the main traffic flow, caused congestion and disruption to bus timetables. Reading Borough Council wanted a cost-efficient, effective solution to accurately capture bus lane violations and improve bus travel times. Reading became the first local authority in the UK to deploy Siemens's LaneHawk fully auto
