820 NDI Recognition Systems has announced the latest release of its Talon ANPR engine and says that Version 8.2 includes enhancements to performance, international reading capability and a simplified set-up. For instance, it accommodates multiple lane capture on any system configuration and provides a high level of accuracy and performance without quality degradation. The engine supports ANPR reading from both the IR and the colour cameras feeds, which the company says is especially important in smaller projects or countries with non-retroreflective number plates.

Using sophisticated probabilistic context-checking techniques, the software engine can be trained and configured for multinational number plate recognition and NDI Recognition Systems says the new Talon V8.2 release demonstrates an improved international reading capability for North and South America, EMEA and the Asian territories.

    Genetec has launched what it claims is the world's smallest high-resolution Licence Plate Recognition (LPR) camera - the AutoVu SharpX. Designed specifically for mobile law enforcement applications, although the device is just 42mm (1.65 in) tall, the company claims it achieves the industry's highest plate capture rates by providing two to three times higher resolution than other solutions. Moreover, it is capable of reading up to differential speeds over 320 km/h (200mph), across three lanes of traffic. Th

    January 20, 2012
    The growing popularity of hybrids and electric vehicles gives rise to new safety issues in urban environments, as many of the aural cues associated with engine noise can be missing. The solution is to intelligently make vehicles noisier. The rise in popularity of hybrids and Electric Vehicles (EVs) is a result of environmental pressures, shifts in taxation and emerging technologies for batteries and motors. Competition among the car manufacturers means these vehicles need to be cost effective to buy and ope
