Vaxtor Corporation’s (Vaxtor) advanced LPR analytics platform can now be deployed across 677 Onssi’s Ocularis VMS platform to recognize, capture and archive data on license plates, railway vehicles, U.S. Department of Transport (USDOT) numbers and more as part of an integration partnership between both companies. The agreement, according to Onssi’s Ken LaMarcam VP of sales & marketing, allows the solution to deliver a range of security and operations data to meet the specific challenges of the transportation and law enforcement markets.

The Vaxtor LPR solutions include the capture of OCR, MMR (year, make and model of vehicles), USDOT, Railway, Container, Red Light and Wrong Turn detection integrations. The analytics are said to recognise letters, numbers and symbols both vertically and horizontally. Ocularis is available as a professional model for organisations operating multiple locations with small to mid-sized camera counts as well as an Enterprise version for a range of mid to large IT-centric companies. In addition, the Ultimate model is aimed at large clients with extended command and control needs and recording server failover.

Michael Deutsch, executive management consultant, Vaxtor, said: “The integration of our LPR and OCR analytics provides highly functional and reliable data capture capabilities. End users can now capitalize on the valuable rich data contained in printed text and numbers, with the confidence that the information is both highly accurate and instantly accessible.”

    Integration between OnSSI’s Ocularis video management software (VMS) platform and the Elerts software solution enables security personnel to receive immediate, actionable incident information via smartphone. On receiving an incident report, the Elerts cloud-based software matches the GPS location of that smartphone with a database of camera field of view polygons. Information is instantly sent to Ocularis, which then automatically pushes live footage from the camera closest to the incident to a command cent

    Transportation applications move to machine vision’s mainstream
    The adaptation of machine vision to transport applications continues apace. That the machine vision industry is taking traffic installations seriously is evident by the amount of hardware and software products tailor-made for ITS applications that are now available on the market. A good example comes from US-based Gridsmart Technologies which has developed a single wire fisheye camera that provides a horizon to horizon view for use at intersections. Not only does the single camera replace four or more in a
