    How to capture a still image of a stopped vehicle day & night with DS-2CD2T47G2-L

    Hi folks, just an update on this, raising the camera worked well, thanks for all the suggestions, I introduced some 'fuzzy matching' in the software to compensate for bad reads which tend to happen at night and when it's raining. The gate controller (AWS and Raspberry Pi versions) and a web...

    How to capture a still image of a stopped vehicle day & night with DS-2CD2T47G2-L

    Just an update that raising the height of the camera seems to have helped, I need to test for a few more days to confirm it's working well in different light conditions. Thanks for the helpful suggestions. I've created a GitHub repository for a Raspberry Pi variant of my original solution which...

    How to capture a still image of a stopped vehicle day & night with DS-2CD2T47G2-L

    Thank you, my other cameras were mounted higher, I wanted to mount the camera lower in this case to capture the licence plate better. Do you think I'll have better results with an Intrusion Detection configuration like the one below or will I have the same issues with the algorithm struggling to...

I want to capture a still of a vehicle entering a driveway, the vehicles naturally pause in front of an...
