Why does XProtect LPR ignore plates that look readable on screen?
Answered by ANPR AI·Sourced
Short answer
The character-height range may exclude them.
Explanation
The engine will not start recognition if characters fall outside its configured minimum or maximum.
Things to check
- Character-height overlay
- Actual plate size
What to do
Adjust the range to the characters in representative snapshots and validate configuration. Keep the range reasonably tight to avoid unnecessary processing.
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
