Hanwha Vision has launched the TNO-7180RLP ANPR camera with 3MP Global Shutter technology to detect number plates on vehicles moving at up to 200km/h (125 mph) across two lanes of traffic. The camera features Hanwha’s ROAD AI solution which uses AI video analytics to identify the type, make, model, and colour of detected vehicles, across 70 different automotive brands, 600 models, and ten colours. It comes with global shutter, for accuracy and clarity of captured number plate images and a frame rate of up to 60fps. Footage can be accessed through Wisenet WAVE, Wisenet SSM and other video management software including Milestone and Genetec.
With eyewitness accounts quite often being inaccurate or incomplete, and particularly so with regards to vehicle licence number plates, the ability to search for vehicles by make, model and colour is likely to be of great help to investigating teams when looking to find footage of a vehicle involved in an incident. Similarly, with criminals frequently swapping the licence number plates on vehicles in order to avoid ANPR identifying them as stolen, police can use the make, model and colour search criteria to cross-reference against reports of stolen vehicles.
The camera can also identify number plates and vehicle make/models from different regions including Europe and the UK, Canada, the USA, Australia and New Zealand, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Middle East, South Africa, and Russia.
The TNO-7180RLP is IP66/IP6K9K, IK10+ and NEMA 4X rated, resisting water, dust and vandal-proof. The camera can be used with PoE++ and an HPoE option is available. A 12VDC power supply is another option for greater resilience against unexpected power fluctuations and flexibility in installation.
