AI-Driven ALPR Software Delivers More Actionable Data
Cutting-edge deep learning technology lets PlateSmart ARES capture even more vehicle data:
- Vehicle color
- Vehicle orientation
- Vehicle type
ALPR Software Enhances CPU Performance
Looking at the entire frame for a plate can tax the CPU. Users can specify exactly where in the frame PlateSmart ARES should look and when, minimizing strain on the CPU and enhancing performance.
- Frame regions
- Frame masks
- Motion triggers
ALPR Filters Through Graphics
| PlateSmart’s patented edge-finding technology consistently identifies the plate, even if surrounded by bumper stickers. |
|
ARES ALPR Doesn't Require a Sweet Spot
| It doesn’t matter where in the frame the license plate appears. If the camera sees it, PlateSmart ARES can read it. |
|
ARES ALPR Software Reads Through Dirt & Grime
| PlateSmart ARES doesn’t require reflective material, so it reads dirty license plates with ease. |
|
Reads Plates at Night Using Traditional IR Light or White Light
| PlateSmart ARES can work with IR light, but it’s not required. It can read plates at night using any modern white light source. |
|
ALPR Software that Reads Stacked Characters
| Some plates feature characters stacked vertically. PlateSmart ARES software can read them. |
|
Sees Specialty Plates
One of the challenges of conducting ALPR in the U.S. is the variety of specialty plates. No issue with PlateSmart ARES software, as it can easily read specialty plates.
Can Read Temporary Tags
| PlateSmart ARES software doesn’t require reflective material, so it can read temporary tags as easily as regular tags. |
