Mobile Number Plate Recognition in Action

The volume of traffic on public roads is high, with many vehicles using several lanes in two directions or parked at the side of the road. Fast, mobile enforcement of vehicles requires immediate, precise, and automatic information synchronisation between centralised and mobile forces. Vehicles must be recognised, classified, and identified by their number plate. This is followed by a fully automatic and immediate comparison of the number plate data with the database.

A new spin on a very familiar piece of ITS technology: the company's Green Gantry is made from wood but can still support signs, sensors and so on, and has a modular design.

Kapsch says this "allows an installation comparable to standard steel bridges and also with the same service life and maintenance intensity".

Each steel gantry creates over 30 tons of CO2 during its production, the company adds - but the wood version "binds more than 20 tons of CO2 and thus has a positive carbon footprint" and "paves the way for sustainable road infrastructure".
