820 NDI Recognition Systems has launched the ST200, a new rapid deployment Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system designed for use in a wide range of covert and overt applications in both mobile and static modes. The ST200 can simultaneously process up to two lanes of high-speed, high-density traffic and multiple units can be networked to provide a 'ring of steel' capability.

The ST200 is a rugged, compact and portable ANPR system with wireless HSUPA (3G) and WiFi connectivity which can be deployed and operational within minutes. It features a powerful 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor with a Windows operating system running high-speed frame grabbers and the Talon ANPR software, a proprietary neural network recognition engine that is claimed to deliver significantly higher performance and accuracy than OCR-based ANPR systems.

The system can handle four video inputs from two 'Dual' ANPR cameras providing full-colour contextual overview imagery and high-quality number plate capture using IR at speeds of up to four plates per second, significantly faster than other systems. Over 2 million time-stamped images and pre- and post-capture videos can be securely stored on the system along with local hotlists which are managed by direct connection to Web-based services such as BOF or the NDI-RS back office called VISCE.

    Selecting the right camera for safety or security
    Machine vision systems offer great variety of function and performance. Teledyne DALSA product manager Manuel Romero describes 10 key criteria to aid selection of advanced camera technology for safety or security applications. There are many ways in which machine vision systems can enhance safety and security in transportation, but the ultimate results will only be as good as the image produced. Success relies on correct selection of the camera of such systems, as the features and performance required vary

    Vysionics - taking a closer look at ANPR
    Vector-Z is the latest addition to Vysionics’ Vector ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) family of cameras. Based on the same reliable hardware platform, Vector-Z brings the option of even higher resolution, along with motorised zoom and focus. The new Vector-Z builds on the success of the Vector, introducing higher resolution sensors on both the scene overview and ANPR cameras, combined with motorised zoom and focus, which Vysionics says makes Vector-Z even easier to configure and use, particular
