i-PRO EMEA and Vaxtor have announced a global collaboration for the automated license plate recognition software, VaxALPR, to run on i-PRO AI-enabled camera models.
With analytics carried out on the edge of i-PRO cameras, the on-camera solution does not need to stream video to a PC/server ensuring efficient operation on all networks, including 4G. The app runs embedded on i-PRO AI cameras with per-camera licensing and no minimum camera count. It’s also integrated for use with the i-PRO Video Insight video management system (VMS) for easier deployment and operation.
The AI solution is aimed at a range of applications, including city surveillance, parking, access control, security, law enforcement and intelligent transportation systems (ITS). The latest on-camera VaxALPR application reportedly has recognition rates above 98% and is suitable for any traffic environment.
Moving forward, Vaxtor also plans to integrate its other object character recognition (OCR) applications, including its generic OCR reader VaxOCR Genesis, for use on i-PRO cameras. This user-programmable, multi-functional OCR will open a range of uses beyond security, including stock auditing, asset tracking and logistics, and for any automation processes that include tracking of numeric codes.
Gerard Figols, i-PRO EMEA President, added: “This global collaboration with Vaxtor, an application provider driving innovation in ALPR and OCR, is another example of our customer-focused business model in action.”
