Flock installed LPR's without permits and has now been banned from operating in two states
What's worse is the unintended consequence of many US jurisdictions changing legislative policy on Secondary Offence traffic stops to avoid discrimination. Along with new Vehicle Pursuit Policies that restrict chases, only allowing them for violent, life-threatening felonies (murder, armed... -
Today's recommendation?
The 5442-Z4-S3 is in that price range and is 99% licence plate capture rate when mounted in the right location for LPR (not on the house down the driveway). Facial Recognition too, now you're asking too much from a single camera, and likely need to research about the DORI philosophy before... -
Importance of Sensor Size for LPR
What you should do is start the set-up with the mounting location as close to the driveway, as perpendicular with the driveway as possible, and the same height as licence plates (~4ft/1m). Run a network cable out to this new location and mount that camera to test what it actually can (or can't... -
Mini-Review - EmpireTech LPR413-Z3
You need a different mounting location that is perpendicular to the roadway, LPR cannot be successfully done from a building away from the roadway. Sure the optical zoom can get you close views of passing vehicles, but the reflective plates require a perpendicular FOV (Field of View). Some... -

How to choose a location for camera
If you don't have front plates you'll need dual cameras. Then it's a balance of wide enough to capture a vehicle driving around a parked vehicle in one direction, and high enough to capture a vehicle with a parked vehicle or cross traffic in the way on the other direction. Here is my camera... -
ReoLink POE Switch - Any IP Cam User Reviews?
Remember it's NOT gigabit switch 100Mbps for each port with only 1,000Mbps LAN uplink ports, don't plug a WiFi Access Point into it, or a PC, just PoE security cameras. Reolink is a good starting point for an Individual to start their PoE security cameras system. You can get it up and running...- RJM_50

Nead Help With License Plate Number
What your most reliable go to website database (not just free), that includes: The lien holders name and address. Date of purchase. Some I use they outdated, still lists a plate for a previous vehicle that plate was previously issued before a transfer, or retired & reissued. Some sites don't... -
New chipset User Interface information?
Lots of videos on NVR I don't use, but I finally found a PDF at the bottom. That should be at the top before NVR AI and PTZ settings, I almost gave up watching after watching 6+ videos that didn't pertain to my question. Thanks... -
New chipset User Interface information?
5442 series with the new S3 chipset, the interface is not Gray/Orange like all the information found online. The new S3 chipset cameras have a Blue/White interface. -
Should I even try to get plates with a 5442?
With the 1/1.8 image sensor you don't need the shutter speed cranked that high. I have both of mine set a 1/1000 at night and it works with default shutter speed during the day. I have both the a Turret IPC-T54IR-ZE and the Bullet IPC-T54IR-Z4E cameras doing LPR for me. The more common Bullet... -
I finished my LPR set-up after 10 months of testing and proof of concept.
I'm using both a Turret IPC-T54IR-ZE and the Bullet IPC-T54IR-Z4E cameras doing LPR captures for me. My state stopped issuing front license plates in 1983 to increase their profits, same vehicle registration costs charged, but only 1 plate delivered to each vehicle owner. So I have to use 2... -
New chipset User Interface information?
is there a YouTube video, or any documentation that goes over the new chipset User Interface? Not the older Gray/Orange user interface, Dahua changed to a new Blue/White User Interface that I have not found easy to translate from the old interface, For example, I'm not sure what all these... -
Digital License Plates
Nice! Glad the camera I purchased has this much potential. My only problem is the Day/Night won't change at the correct times. I have 2 cameras, 1 eventually started working correctly, the other has been stuck in B&W night mode (but won't turn on the IR LEDs until the right darkness). FedEx... -
Love this community! (This motorcycle was flying 50MPH+ in a 25 residential area)
Absolutely not, for 3 summers we have had a group of 2-8 juvenile delinquents racing their Mimi Bikes across the city at (literally) any day/hour. No registration or plates No insurance No helmets (required until 21) Running stop signs & red lights Failure to yield to oncoming traffic...
