Genetec’s LPR System Offers
Resource-Maximizing Benefits
AutoVu Automates the Identification of Vehicle License Plates.
Manually verifying license plates, whether for residential parking enforcement, access or parking control or stolen vehicle identification is simply an outdated practice. For one, manual verification is time-consuming so resources are not being fully maximized throughout shifts. Manual verification is also unsafe for officers who typically have to input vehicle plate numbers in their mobile terminals as they are driving.
Using AutoVu, the IP license plate recognition (LPR) system of the Security Center, Genetec’s unified security platform, organizations can automate the identification of vehicle license plates, offering greater efficiency and keeping operators free from distraction.
The AutoVu system automatically reads surrounding vehicle plates, compares them to a database and alerts operators when they need to take action. This LPR system comes with powerful features to make users even more efficient such as using graphical maps for configuration, conducting data-mining in a vehicle or office, and getting image and time capture on every license plate read.
The AutoVu system is available in both fixed and mobile installations and some common AutoVu applications include:
• Law Enforcement Applications:
Wanted vehicle and felon identification, in-vehicle data-mining, real-time monitoring and reporting, back-office data-mining and geo-fencing.
• Parking Enforcement Applications:
University or city scofflaw and permit enforcement, university or city time-limited enforcement (block face, same space and district), university lot counts, vehicle identification, data-mining and evidence review, route management and reports.
• MLPI Applications:
Automated vehicle inventory collection, inventory reconciliation and data-mining, inventory reporting.
• Security and Surveillance Applications:
Wanted vehicle and felon identification, vehicle audit trail, automated access control, traffic management, bus and taxi lane exemption.
As part of Genetec’s unified security platform, AutoVu comes with a very intuitive and user-friendly interface. Operators with any level of computer experience will feel at ease with this LPR system. In the office, operators can drag and drop reads to see an image of the vehicle and its plate, use graphical maps to review LPR data and get reports with one click of the mouse. In the vehicle, large buttons and touch-enabled functions make training a breeze.
Getting AutoVu up and running is simple. Once the AutoVu camera is installed, users only need to make minimal adjustments and configuration to get the LPR system going. Databases can be uploaded at each shift or automatically on a pre-set time frame. It’s an easy three-step process to LPR automation.
