Solar-powered ANPR

PIPS Technology has launched SpikeletSP, a solar-powered ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) camera, designed to be powered from a single solar panel for an unlimited period of time. The device is a fully integrated number plate recognition unit incorporating the camera(s), illuminator, data and image processing within a single sealed enclosure. Wireless IP connectivity over GPRS, EDGE or 3G can be provided by fitting an optional modem, making SpikeletSP truly wireless without the need for power or co

    Bluetooth and Wi-Fi offer new options for travel time measurements
    New trials show Bluetooth and Wi-Fi signals can be reliably used for measuring travel times and at a lower cost than an ANPR system, but which is the better proposition depends on many factors. Measuring travel times has traditionally relied automatic number plate (or licence plate) recognition (ANPR/ALPR) cameras capturing the progress of vehicles travelling along a pre-defined route. Such systems also have the benefit of being able to count passing traffic and have become a vital tool in dealing with c

    Automatic number plate recognition continues to find new applications beyond the traditional. In coming years, we can expect the application set to grow significantly Moore's Law has seen to it that computer processing power has improved out of all comparison in the 30-plus years since the first working Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) system was created by the UK's Police Scientific Development Branch. The attendant increases in systems' capabilities have resulted in ANPR being deployed globally
