An LPR unit is a device that captures license plate numbers. An LPR
unit typically includes an LPR camera and a context camera. These cameras can be
incorporated to the unit or external to the unit.
AutoVu™
Sharp is the LPR unit used in
Security
Center
AutoVu™ solutions. The Sharp includes license plate
capturing and processing components, as well as digital video processing functions,
enclosed in a ruggedized casing. Sharps can be deployed in mobile and fixed installations.
- Mobile AutoVu™ installation: The
Sharp camera is mounted on a vehicle and
is integrated into Genetec
Patroller™ (the in-vehicle
software of the AutoVu™ LPR system), which in
turn is integrated into Security
Center. The
LPR Manager detects mobile Sharps through the AutoVu™
Genetec
Patroller™ system they are connected to.
- Fixed AutoVu™ installation: The Sharp
camera is mounted in a fixed location, such as on a pole, and integrated directly
into Security
Center. The LPR Manager detects
fixed Sharps directly through the Security
Center
discovery port.
