High-Quality Imaging: One of the most important features of an LPR camera is its ability to capture clear images of license plates even at a distance. With a high-resolution 1080p industrial-grade sensor, license plate capture is accurate and reliable, making it easier for authorities to track down vehicles.  

The camera also features a Starlight Optical Sensor and 4 LED IR illumination beads to capture images of license plates at night or in low-light conditions, ensuring that license plate recognition is effective 24/7. 

Motorized Zoom Lens: The motorized zoom lens of an LPR camera allows for flexible focal length adjustment, making it easier to install and capture license plates at different distances. 

 This feature is particularly useful in parking lots or garages, where vehicles may park at varying distances from the camera. 

Advanced Imaging Features: The LPR camera also features AGC, White Balance, and WDR for various light conditions, ensuring that the camera captures high-quality images regardless of the lighting conditions. 

 This feature can be useful in areas where there are large changes in lighting conditions throughout the day. 

Efficient Compression: Advanced H.265 encoding technology improves compression efficiency, allowing for more efficient use of storage space and faster transmission of video footage. 

Vehicle Access Control: The LPR camera can be connected to a barrier to enable vehicle access control. This feature is particularly useful in parking lots or gated communities, where only authorized vehicles are allowed to enter. 

Allow-List and Block-List Configuration: The camera supports allow-list and block-list configuration, which allows users to specify which license plates are allowed or not allowed to enter a particular area. This feature is particularly useful in high-security areas or areas with limited access. 

Email Notifications: The LPR camera can be configured to send email notifications when a specific license plate is detected or when certain conditions are met. This feature is particularly useful for law enforcement agencies or parking operators who need to be notified of specific events. 

Easy Installation: The LPR camera features a 3-axis mounting bracket for various installation scenarios, making it easier to install and adjust the camera’s position. 

 

Multi-Functional Capabilities of LPR Cameras Beyond License Plate Recognition: 

  • Built-in vehicle & license plate recognition algorithm can recognize standard license plates of multiple countries 
  • Supports simultaneous application to road and entry/exit scenes without switching 
  • Supports license plate detection and recognition for up to 2 lanes in road scenes. 
  • Supports capturing vehicle head only. 
  • Supports recognition of up to 10 vehicle body colors. 
  •  Supports allow-list and block-list configuration.  
  • Supports vehicle access control when connected to a barrier. 
  •  Supports Micro SD cards of up to 128GB.  
  • Supports Automatic Network Replenishment (ANR), the camera can automatically store video to its SD card in case of network disconnection (micro-SD card not included).  
  • Supports audio acquisition and intercom. 

Now let’s talk about another important and main thing about the LPR camera I.e., Network and network security 

Network: 

The ability of a network to adapt to various conditions can make all the difference in delivering a seamless user experience. This is especially true for live video streams, which can suffer greatly from network issues such as packet loss. 

 Fortunately, the network auto-adaptability of some systems ensures that live video streams remain smooth and uninterrupted, even in less-than-ideal network conditions. 

 Additionally, the support of SNMP and UNP protocols ensures that the network is easy to manage and traverse between public and private networks. 

 And if you need even more customization, third-party integration is made easy with the ability to integrate through SDK or HTTP. All of these features come together to create a comprehensive and user-friendly system that can be trusted to deliver high-quality video and audio feeds, even in challenging circumstances. 

Network Security: 

  • Supports authorized user access by password. Weak password detection and account lock-up when failed login attempts reach the upper limit enhance password security. 
  •  Supports HTTPS. RTSP authentication prevents unauthorized video stream requests. 
  •  IP address filtering prevents illegal access from untrusted IP addresses.  
  • Gateway ARP protection prevents MAC address spoofing.

Best Places to Mount LPR Bullet Camera 

The REVO Ultra License Plate Recognition Camera can be mounted in a variety of locations, depending on the specific needs of the user. Here are some of the best places to mount the camera for optimal performance: 

  • Above the entrance gate: If you’re using the camera to monitor a gated entrance, consider mounting it above the gate so that it has a clear view of the license plates as vehicles enter and exit. 
  • On a pole or post: Mounting the camera on a pole or post is a popular option for parking lots or other areas where vehicles may be moving in multiple directions. This allows the camera to capture license plates from multiple angles and heights. 
  • On a building or wall: Mounting the camera on a building or wall is a good option if you want to capture license plates from a fixed location, such as a driveway or parking lot entrance. 
  • Infrared illuminators: For optimal license plate capture, it is recommended to use additional infrared illuminators with the camera. These can be mounted alongside the camera to provide additional light in low-light conditions, improving the clarity and accuracy of the captured license plates. 

Positioning  

To ensure that the REVO Ultra License Plate Recognition Camera properly records vehicles’ license plates, it’s important to position the camera at the correct angle along with the correct location. Ideally, the camera should be mounted at a height and angle that allows it to capture the license plates of vehicles as they pass by. 

A general guideline for positioning the camera is to mount it at a height of 10 to 15 feet above the ground and at an angle of approximately 45 degrees. This will allow the camera to capture the license plates of vehicles as they approach and pass by, without obstructing the view of the driver’s head or other important details of the vehicle. 

However, the exact positioning may vary depending on the specific needs and location of the camera. It’s important to test the camera in different positions and angles to ensure optimal performance and accuracy in capturing license plates. Additionally, the camera should be mounted securely to prevent it from being tampered with or knocked out of position.
