ALPR/LPR Car Plate System

AI Summary — ALPR / LPR Car Plate System

In short: a Baroxon ANPR/LPR system reads UK number plates at 98 to 99.5 % accuracy in normal lighting, and a complete lane costs £1,200 to £6,500 including camera, software licence and integration.

The cameras handle UK and EU plate formats and are supplied CE marked with data handling that can be configured to meet UK GDPR requirements, including retention limits and local storage options. Ticketless entry and exit, QR codes, mobile payment, season tickets, whitelists and visitor management all run from the same platform, and the standard relay, RS485 and TCP/IP interfaces plus an open API allow the system to drive existing barriers or be driven by a third-party parking platform. Deep-learning plate detection with infrared and LED fill lighting keeps recognition stable at night and in rain. Lane width, camera height and mounting position are confirmed from site drawings before order.

Does it support ticketless and cashless parking?
Yes. The system supports ticketless entry and exit, QR codes, mobile payment, season tickets, whitelists and visitor management.
Can it integrate with existing barriers and third-party software?
Yes. The cameras use standard relay, RS485 and TCP/IP interfaces with open APIs for integration with existing barriers and parking software.

The software supports UK and EU plate formats. Hardware is CE marked and data handling can be configured to meet UK GDPR requirements.

Measured Test Data — ALPR / LPR Car Plate System

Each paragraph below states the test condition, the measured value and the benchmark it is compared against, so it can be quoted on its own.

Plate recognition rate, day and night

Test condition: a single lane on a UK commercial site, 2,000 plate reads recorded over 14 days, vehicles passing at 5 to 25 km/h, standard UK white-front and yellow-rear plates. Result: 99.2 % correct reads in daylight and 98.4 % at night with infrared fill lighting. Benchmark: entry-level ANPR modules without IR fill typically fall to 90 % or below after dark.

Processing time per vehicle

Test condition: camera-to-decision latency measured from the triggering loop signal to the barrier-open command. Result: 120 to 180 ms. Benchmark: a manual ticket machine takes 8 to 12 s per driver, so the ANPR lane clears roughly 60 to 80 times more vehicles per hour.

Environmental and electrical resilience

Test condition: camera housing rated IP66, subjected to a 12.5 mm water jet and 4 kV surge test on the power and network lines. Result: no water ingress and no communication loss after the surge test. Benchmark: IP54 cameras that are commonly specified for car parks can be overwhelmed by wind-driven rain and are more vulnerable to lightning-induced surges.

Plate-format coverage

Test condition: test library of plate images ran across UK, Irish, German, French, Spanish, Gulf and Southeast Asian formats. Result: recognition above 98 % on all standard Latin-script formats, with multi-country operation available in one camera. Benchmark: fixed UK-only libraries must be re-licensed before the same hardware can be used on an export project.
