Bosch and ISS partner for LPR

As an operations manager you are accountable for efficient logistical flows and effective use of the roads and parking lots which you maintain. Knowing the ins and outs of the transport infrastructure and what’s going on at all times provides you with the knowledge to ensure operations are running safely and efficiently and are in compliance with the rules and laws.

An important part of this comes from monitoring which vehicles are entering an area and ensuring they are allowed to be there. By capturing license plates of every vehicle moving in your area you gain knowledge of traffic flows and usage patterns. Such a solution should also allow you to easily configure and manage your monitoring preferences and permit easy data exchanges with other operational management systems and services to manage your infrastructure and logistics as a whole.

Additionally as transportation infrastructures are often operating around the clock, you need reliable vehicle identification data 24/7. This means that the cameras capturing this data should work flawlessly in all lighting and weather conditions, for both slow and fast moving vehicles. Bosch cameras are built to produce usable images, 24/7, in all weather conditions.

A partnership between ISS and Bosch has led to the integration of video analytics from Bosch in SecureOS, the intelligent enterprise video management solution from ISS. This integration enhances operator efficiency and situational awareness to assist in managing complex environments with ease.

For quality license plate recognition in both day and night the cameras make use of supplementary infrared light. The camera has a special License Plate Recognition (LPR) mode which is developed in collaboration with LPR software to deliver readable license plates even with glaring headlights and with fast moving vehicles. The mechanical design of the cameras ensures reliable 24/7 operation for many years even in harsh environments.

The SecurOS AUTO system from ISS, when used with ISS certified Bosch cameras, provides easy to deploy solutions for all of these requirements. It recognises license plates from many countries, manages and matches white, hot and blacklists and notifies the operator either in the GUI or through a messaging interface to other management systems. Additionally, the SecurOS AUTO system can be used and managed as a standalone or embedded in other management systems on the premises.
