With standard images, bright headlights can cause smear on the image and disrupt plate finding methods which in turn decreases the available plate processing time. During sunny periods of the daytime the image may also appear to contain thousands of small artefacts that need to be processed and eliminated from the plate finder algorithms.
JetBlack™ from CitySync Ltd (http://www.citysync.co.uk) is the solution to eliminating all unwanted images to leave a clear, sharp, high contrast capture of only the license plate. JetBlack™ works by using an in-camera processor which removes every pixel that isn’t reflecting light back from the ANPR camera. This is an industry first and a major breakthrough in the development of ANPR systems.
Lawson Noble, CitySync’s Chief Technology Officer commented: “JetBlack simplifies ANPR images which means we can now use smaller, low powered PC platforms to process plates. These compact processors have now been incorporated into our new Fox-i intelligent ANPR camera range”.
