| Maximum acceptable traffic speed for successful recognition | Up to 255 km/hr for simultaneous processing of 4 traffic lanes (surveillance zones) by one computer (25 fps per channel) |
| Up to 10 km/hr for simultaneous processing of 16 traffic lanes (surveillance zones) by one computer (in switching mode) |
| Probability of license plate recognition under real traffic conditions |
| For detection of sought vehicles with a maximum error probability of 4% | At least 92% during daylight hours At least 92% during hours of darkness |
| For automated violation detection with a maximum error probability of 0.5% (for automated traffic ticket generation under real traffic conditions and using images imported from other systems) | At least 75% |
| For license plates visually recognizable at a distance of 40 m (clean license plates compliant with the requirements of the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic, November 8, 1968) | At least 99% during daylight hours At least 99% during hours of darkness |
| Capability to recognize dirty license plates |
| For evenly distributed soiling | Lowest acceptable license plate image contrast 10% (contrast visibility of characters against the background: 25 units of 256 unit scale) |
| For irregular, spotty soiling | Maximum acceptable soiling - 12% (ratio of soiled area to total plate number area) |
| Number of different types of recognizable license plates |
More than 300, including:
|
| The main types of single-line and double-line license plates of many countries of Europe, Asia, North and South America (regular civil as well as specialty plates, including diplomatic, commercial, military, police, etc.) using roman or cyrillic characters, as well as specialized characters of foreign national alphabets, are supported. The specific set of recognizable license plate characters can be customized individually. | |
| Supported image input methods for recognition purposes |
|
| Certified method for calculating vehicle speed |
|
| Specifications of standard video sensors |
| Width of surveillance scene for one CCTV camera | 3 m for a frontally positioned video camera 3.2-3.7 m for a video camera with up to 10-20 lateral divergence from the direction of traffic |
