SVS-Vistek unveils ultra-high resolution camera

SVS-Vistek is showcasing a new, ultra-high resolution camera capable of taking photographs of up to 120 megapixels for ANPR purposes. The camera’s resolution is so great that it can be placed some distance from the scene – at the top of a high building, for example – and carry out ANPR surveillance over several streets simultaneously. Speed or red light enforcement are among the potential uses. The typical range of cameras used for ANPR purposes is five to 20 megapixels.

The camera’s resolution is so great that it can be placed some distance from the scene – at the top of a high building, for example – and carry out ANPR surveillance over several streets simultaneously. Speed or red light enforcement are among the potential uses. The typical range of cameras used for ANPR purposes is five to 20 megapixels.

“I’m not aware of any similar cameras,” said SVS-Vistek technical marketing specialist Stefan Waizmann. “I don’t know of any other ANPR solution like this.” The new camera was launched in December 2017. “We know other people are working on solutions like this, but right now there are no solutions with this kind of high-resolution cameras on the market.”

The new camera has been highly successful, with significant numbers sold, said Waizmann. It is “extremely robust”, capable of operating in extremes of temperature and imposes a very low system load on the accompanying computer system.

  • London ‘should emulate New York’ to reduce congestion, says Karhoo
    December 21, 2018
    London could reduce congestion by emulating New York when it comes to open data, claims technology firm Karhoo. New York has publicly-available anonymised TPEP/LPEP75 data which allowed Karhoo to assess the impact of taxi and private hire (PH) movements on traffic flow, congestion and pollution, the company says. It adds that if Transport for London (TfL) were to follow suit, it “would be quick and relatively low-cost given that almost every licenced vehicle is connected to tracking systems already”. Tf
