Why does my H4 LPC scene look very dark even during daylight?
Answered by ANPR AI·Sourced
Short answer
This dedicated capture camera is sensitive to IR rather than visible light.
Explanation
The historical H4 guide describes a dark scene as expected under some conditions.
Things to check
- Model
- Plate illumination
- Actual readable plate image
What to do
Assess illuminated plates rather than overall scene brightness, and check the separate context view when needed.
ANPR Edge
Skip the dedicated ANPR camera. Read plates from the cameras you already have.
ANPR Edge is plate-recognition software that runs on a PC at your site and works with ordinary IP cameras, so plate reads no longer depend on one vendor's camera, NVR or firmware.
- Works with standard IP cameras over RTSP
- One license per location covers every camera
- Runs on a Windows PC or Mac you own
