What is "automatic number plate recognition"?
Automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) is a technology that uses cameras and software to read and identify the license plates of vehicles. It captures images of number plates, then processes the information to compare with databases for tasks like checking vehicle registration or identifying stolen cars. This system is often used by law enforcement for monitoring traffic, enforcing regulations, or assisting in investigations. ANPR can be deployed in locations such as highways, parking lots, or at security checkpoints.
Example
The city installed automatic number plate recognition ( ANPR ) systems at key intersections to help monitor and manage traffic flow.
The police used automatic number plate recognition technology to track down stolen vehicles more efficiently.
