Mobile Automatic Number Plate Reader ANPR/ALPR/LPR/OCR
App Design has been at the forefront of Mobile Automatic Number Plate Reader (ANPR) development for iOS and Android mobile devices since 2013 and now develop bespoke projects and license proprietary ANPR tools to businesses and multinationals of all sizes.
Also known as Automatic Licence Plate Reader (ALPR), App Design focus predominantly on mobile IOS ALPR and Android ALPR services for industries within the automotive, security, vehicle management, and finance sectors.
What is ANPR?
Using Optical Character Recognition (OCR), a handheld or mobile ANPR scanner can be used for a variety of functions.
For example, Automatic Number Plate Readers are typically used by parking and law enforcement agencies around the world to identify vehicles in violation of traffic regulations such as: no insurance, tax, speeding, average speed camera, etc.
Automatic License Plate Reader (ALPR) would typically be used within airports, car parks, motorways for automated toll-collection, transport hubs, as well as security firms to track vehicles entering and exiting a premise.
How ANPR Works?
An Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) software consists of five components:
1) Image Acquisition.
2) Licence Plate Extraction.
3) Character Segmentation.
4) Optical Character Recognition.
5) Data Access Model.
The App Design Mobile ANPR app development service provides a wide range of services allowing data to be pushed or pulled to and from third party databases with data stored locally for offline use or in the cloud.
App Design currently offers a variety of ANPR libraries with the two most common:
Automatic Library
User simply walks past the registration and the software automatically detects the registration.
Verification Library
Currently the predominant library used in a number of products. In this version the user captures the plate, OCR converts to text and requires the User to Accept or Retake the ANPR result.
