What Are ANPR and LPR Cameras?
Both ANPR and LPR cameras are surveillance devices that use high-tech technology made to scan automatically the license plates.
- ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) uses cameras as well as specialized software that recognize and read the number plates found on stationary or moving automobiles.
- LPR (License Plate Recognition) is a term utilized interchangeably. It focuses on the camera's capability to record and process license plate data.
The systems analyze the plates against databases, in real-time and instantly identify illegal, stolen or suspect vehicles.
The Growing Need for Vehicle Identification Systems in the UAE
The UAE's growing economy and an increasing number of cars that the need for effective security systems has never been more urgent. The theft of vehicles, though minimal in the UAE when compared with global norms is still a major concern.
Identification of vehicles that have been stolen using ANPR and LPR cameras is now essential for:
- Improving public safety.
- Reducing crime rates.
- Assisting in traffic management efforts.
Through the integration of these technology over urban areas, highways such as parking spaces, highways, and checkpoints at the border by integrating these technologies, the UAE creates a safe setting for everyone.
How ANPR and LPR Systems Work
ANPR and LPR cameras work by combining of
- High-resolution imaging.
- Optical character recognition (OCR) software.
- Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithms.
In the event that a vehicle is in an area monitored by the police:
- The camera takes a top-quality images of the car.
- The OCR software takes the license plate number.
- The system evaluates the plates against databases of stolen cars.
- If the match is discovered the authorities immediately get alerted.
The efficacy of the detection of stolen vehicles with ANPR and LPR cameras ensures that vehicles stolen can be detected in just a few moments, which can lead to swift intervention.
