OCR5 is an intelligent, multi-country, multi-platform license plate recognition system that offers a very high success rate in parking management.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the\u00a0parking sector<\/strong>, companies aim to implement increasingly automated access and exit systems. This requires the installation of technological solutions that ensure both a high success rate in the recognition and reading of license plates and total integration with PARCS or PMS systems, or payment and reservation platforms.\u00a0How can maximum accuracy in parking management be guaranteed?<\/strong>\u00a0In this market, using solutions with success rates below 98-99% incurs significant operational costs for parking operators. Discover how to achieve an\u00a0accuracy rate of over 99%<\/strong>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We know that the accuracy of an automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) system depends on several factors,including the condition of the license plates, lighting, and the type of video analysis technology used for LPR.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deep Learning Technology in LPR Parking Solutions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The technology used in the development of the LPR solution is crucial and distinguishes one product from another, especially if the system is based on conventional neural networks or\u00a0deep learning algorithms.<\/a>. The optimal solution for LPR is to use algorithms based on deep learning networks, as their high accuracy and robustness facilitate efficient parking management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our LPR technology, SIRAM OCR5, is a license plate recognition software that uses deep learning algorithms, ensuring high accuracy in parking management and access control. It also adapts perfectly to various license plate formats depending on the country and offers quick implementation in any type of installation. Thanks to its optimal performance, OCR5 becomes the best LPR solution\u00a0for Stop&Go and FreeFlow\u00a0<\/a>(barrierless and ticketless).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lighting, the Key in LPR for Parking<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The risk of any LPR system in parking is the non-detection or incorrect reading of vehicle license plates. This leads to issues in the payment process, space management, a poor user experience, and higher operational costs. Therefore, it is essential that the LPR system efficiently reads all types of plates, whether deteriorated or customized, depending on the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The accuracy rate of an LPR system depends on the number of countries to be recognized simultaneously and the environmental conditions of the geographical area where it is implemented. In regions where vehicles and their plates are\u00a0exposed to adverse weather conditions,<\/strong>such as sandstorms or heavy snowfall, plate damage can prevent correct reading. Additionally, the customization of plates requires ALPR technology to adapt to each type of lettering and the combination of letters and numbers in different positions. These two factors can pose an obstacle in the recognition and reading process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\u00a0use of white light in LPR cameras<\/a>\u00a0or on the roadway significantly increases the accuracy of license plate reading. White light improves the visibility of license plates, whether they have reflective coatings or not. This improvement is crucial to ensure the\u00a0ALPR system can accurately capture the details of license plates in\u00a0<\/strong>various lighting conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OCR5: Achieving an Accuracy Rate of Over 99%<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At Innova, we have achieved accuracy rates above 99%. This is a significant success in the ALPR world, as OCR5 offers high precision rates even where plates can be customized, have unusual characters, or are highly deteriorated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Achieving high accuracy in ALPR systems is vital for implementing user-friendly\u00a0solutions like ticketless or barrierless systems<\/a>\u00a0which ensure smooth vehicle flow and avoid congestion at parking exits. For high-precision installations, we have designed an ALPR system, SIRAM Twinplate, which combines more than one recognition camera\u00a0to perform dual plate capture.<\/strong>. The use of the Twinplate system, with two or more cameras per lane, guarantees higher plate capture accuracy by providing multiple angles and perspectives, as well as redundancy in the lane in case one of the cameras fails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Additionally, we use\u00a0LPR cameras equipped with white light to enhance accuracy<\/a>, overcoming possible defects in the plate\u2019s reflectivity. This allows for clearer images and improved recognition rates, even when working in IR and the reflective coating is damaged. Thus, our OCR5 LPR technology enables effective management of parking entrances and exits without issues, improving both the overall user experience and the profitability of the parking lot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Innova, we are committed to providing cutting-edge solutions that ensure maximum accuracy and efficiency in license plate recognition, offering\u00a0greater profitability and an enhanced user experience.<\/strong>. Contact us to take your parking to the next level!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
