SpikeHD
SpikeHD is a fully integrated number plate reading camera incorporating both the camera and the recogniser within a single sealed inclosure. It is designed for use in the highest performance applications where it is necessary to provide the ANPR function across a full 4m carriageway (3.5m with 0.5m overlap).
SpikeHD incorporates all of the features of Spike+, which is currently deployed in the Western Extension Zone of the Central London Congestion Charging Scheme
The Principal new features are:
SpikeHD incorporates all of the features of Spike+, which is currently deployed in the Western Extension Zone of the Central London Congestion Charging Scheme
The Principal new features are:
- 4 metre road width, using 1392 x 512 pixel sensor
- 4 x more powerful processor (note that with a 50fps plate-finder there is little additional processing required for the larger images, so the majority of this is available for improved processing)
- Reading multiple number plates in a single field of view
- Embedded Linux operating system, offering standard linus connectivity including encrypted links
- 34-52 Vdc power (48V nominal) for long cable runs and full operation at upto 100m from power source
- Pluggable terminal-strip rear connection for rapid cable termination in the field, whilst maintaining a hermetically sealed, purged camera
- Standard 'C'-mount lenses offering variable aperture and varifocal options
- Power, Ethernet serial, trigger (tamper detection), colour video in a single cable
- Standard metal gland cable seals with greater robustness, allowing upto 3 separate cable entries for connection to DSRC or other equipment
- Mulitple concurrent access to viewfinder and PIPS client
- Hardware MJPEG streaming of the IR camera IR (50fps, 1392 x 512) eliminating the need for a high performance frame-grabber on a PC for data acquisition
- 264 wide-angle LED's to illuminate 4metres of road
- Bottom or top-mounting
