A pair of glasses with built-in automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) has been developed by Intertraffic exhibitor 7545 Lector Vision. The glasses have an onboard camera, GPS and a CPU along with software to allow plate recognition to be executed inside the glasses.


In addition the glasses have a wifi link to a smartphone, to through which it exports data to the Lector Vision's remote Traffic Command Centre.

Also on display is the Traffic Eye, a more traditional ANPR camera and an ‘all-in-one’ system that integrates the camera, control electronics, illumination, image processing and control in a single device.

    Network video alternative to machine vision in urban applications
    It would be easy to fall into the trap of seeing machine vision as the vision-based solution for ITS and traffic, however Patrik Anderson, Director Business Development Transportation of Axis Communications, notes that many of the applications which are coming to be associated with machine vision – and, indeed, many of the characteristics, such as at-the-edge analytics and image processing – are also possible with open-standard networked video. Networked video brings a whole host of advantages, such as the
