ANPR Visitor Management System
U
p until now, Automatic Number Plate
Recognition (ANPR) has not been viable for
use with site visitor management and access
control due to its high cost and technical
complexity. However, with the introduction of
ClearView’s new ANPR Visitor Management
System, vehicle registration data can be used as
a basis for visitor management. It provides a
host of services including email or SMS
notification of visitor arrival; recording of all
vehicle site activity; control of barriers and
welcome signage; live and historical car park
data usage; and security prompts for black-listed
vehicles. It also offers an optional capability to
print visitor identification cards.
The basic system allows two ANPR cameras
and two overview cameras to be connected to a
single controller which can be monitored by an
external IP, ADSL or 3G interface. It is available
as a complete package comprising all necessary
hardware and software, or as a software
application for loading onto an existing PC.
50% of the UK’s leading supermarket chains
are already using the system. Applications
include parking operators, waste sites,
commercial, hotel, and public sector uClearView Communication Ltd
organisations which can benefit from using u01245 214100
vehicle data to monitor and manage authorised uinfo@clearview-communications.com
and unauthorised visitors. uwww.clearview-communications.com
