Ticketless ALPR for Motorcycles

SIRAM OCR5 becomes the technological solution chosen by B:SM, a public Mobility entity in Barcelona, ​​for the automatic reading of motorcycle license plates in public car parks.

NOwadays, there are many parking operator companies that opt ​​for the implementation of solutions that offer a pleasant user experience. Ticketless and barrierless solutions have become access control systems for car parks with high demand in the sector. The key to the implementation of this type of technology is the precision and reliability of the license plate reading and recognition systems, therefore, SIRAM OCR5 becomes the optimal ALPR technology for motorcycle rear reading chosen by B:SM.

Last October, Aparcaments B:SM implemented the license plate recognition system for motorcycles in five car parks in the city of Barcelona. These facilities are added to the 13 car parks that already had this service, making a total of 18 public car parks with a ticketless system for the entry and exit of motorcycles by reading license plates.

The installation of cameras for rear reading of motorcycle license plates at entrances and exits has made it possible to offer this new ticketless service to motorcycle owners. The high reliability rate of SIRAM OCR5 allows drivers and motorcycle users to enter and exit parking lots without the need to use the conventional card, since the cameras installed when recognizing license plates cause the barriers to rise automatically without user intervention.

The implementation of this LPR technology for motorcycles shows that B:SM is committed to new solutions that allow us to face the great challenges of Urban Mobility, where intelligent technologies such as SIRAM OCR5, based on deep learning algorithms, help to meet the objectives of sustainability of the new Smart Cities. The success of this ticketless functionality for reading and recognizing motorcycle license plates allows SIRAM OCR5 to be expanded to the rest of the car parks in the B:SM Network in order to improve the agility and comfort of motorcycle users.
