Licence Plate Recognition (LPR), also known as Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR), allows a camera to detect a licence plate, then recognise the charactors via Optical Character Recognition (OCR) typically trained with deep learning neutral networks. The charactors are then compared to a database listing in real-time for access control or traffic monitoring needs.
Typically examples for these cameras are:
- Stationary ANPR/LPR: A boom gate can be triggered to open automatically based on licence plates found in a database (e.g. ticketless parking, car parks or weighbridge management).
- Mobile ANPR/LPR: Law enforcement can use the system to detect cars breaking the law (e.g. unregistered vehicle), and automatically issue digital infringement notices (e-tickets).
We typically supply and install Licence Plate Recognition (LPR) custom solutions. We have much experience with boom gate control, inductive detector loops, security cameras, computers, computer networking, custom electronic design/development, programming, and more - we can develop a custom solution to integrate with your existing systems (e.g. Mandalay weighbridge database), or provide a standalone solution.
The ANPR/LPR cameras we use have the following chief features:
- 97% recognition rate of the number plate and the state it was registered.
- 100% vehicle detection rate using hardware trigger (e.g. inductive loop) - or 95%±9% vehicle detection rate if using software trigger during the day (93%±12% during night and day)
- Works at night and day.
- Works up to about 250km/h.
- Works up to about 20m.
- (Optional) speed detection via radar.
- Interface - XML via HTML - we typically write custom software to achieve your objectives (e.g. interface to a 3rd party database, email notices, or perhaps access control).
It should be noted that these cameras with built-in ANPR/LPR are not cheap - the cameras themselves start at about $3500. Then there is additional time & materials on top to install your solution.

Information About Townsville
Townsville is a city on the north-eastern coast of Australia, located in the state of Queensland.
It is adjacent to the central section of the Great Barrier Reef in the dry tropics. The city enjoys over 300 days of sunshine each year, which lends itself to tourism activities all year round and an abundance of outdoor activities.
Popular attractions include 'The Strand', a long tropical beach and garden strip; Reef HQ, a large tropical aquarium holding many of the Great Barrier Reef's native flora and fauna; the Museum of Tropical Queensland, built around a display of relics from the sunken British warship HMS Pandora; and Magnetic Island, a large neighbouring island, the vast majority of which is national park.
Townsville is divided by two local government areas, the City of Townsville and the City of Thuringowa which are administrated by Townsville City Council and the Thuringowa City Council respectively. The urban area is collectively referred to as Townsville, while locally, the two local government areas are sometimes referred to as the "twin cities" or Townsville/Thuringowa. The most recent population statistics of the Townsville Statistical District (urban Townsville and Thuringowa) is 143,328 (2006 census).

Licence Plate Recognition (LPR) for Townsville – Amazing Customer Testimonials
I was concerned with the security of my apartment when it was vacant. I contacted COLETEK and discussed the possibility of having security cameras installed with an email alert system incorporated that would advise me by email if someone entered the apartment, after getting the Internet activated, COLETEK suggested the equipment I should require and had it installed. I am more than happy with the result that was achieved, COLETEK has very good knowledge and understanding of all aspects of the requirements from the equipment I needed and also the IT side of things. I have no reservations in recommending COLETEK for this type of installation.
Very reliable, professional and knowledgeable. In our office were we all amazed by Luke's knowledge of IT and how much he know about different IT issues, specially about the IP cameras. We recommend their services and we will always use their services in the future.
