Unifi AI Port- Works great!

[Riclyo]

Upon further testing; Daytime to evening the AI Port works almost flawlessly; however, at night - despite nailing the settings for nighttime LPR, the AI Port fails to pick up any license plates; makes no sense whatsoever; I have the camera settings dialed virtually perfectly; I even have HLC on. I can freeze frame each car and see the license plate perfectly. I am recording at 30fps.

Is this AI port with your single onvif cam in protect or BI?

AI Port with single ONVIF cam

That's unfortunate. It is like the Unifi AI Port wants to detect a vehicle first before looking for a license plate.

Exactly my thoughts as well - it did not record anything between 7:48pm and 6AM EST this morning even though the License Plate numbers are Crystal Clear.

AI Port with single ONVIF cam

I have some 5442's laying around and am contemplating on getting a CK2 Plus running protect with the AI port and giving it a go. It would be a 3-4 camera max system at a camp that the family would have access to. I'm just weighing cost vs. ease of use compared to setting up a nvr system.

I wish I can recommend the AI Port but night time performance disappoints presently

So I'm still stuck with go full unifi with crappy night cameras or go nvr and risk annoying falses?

I haven't tried a unifi camera for lpr; their lpr offering is somewhere around $400 to $500 and its zoom is no where close to the z12 camera

You can try blue iris and rekor scout

Seems to be a widespread issue

At this time, AI Port DOES NOT work with onvif cameras in night time for LPR

Is this working with the EmpireTech IPC-B52IR-Z12E-S2 (IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E) running the latest firmware?
