Our Automatic Number Plate Recognition
Identify and secure: ANPR on the front line on the roads
ANPR’s key strength lies in automating enforcement, streamlining the processing of violations with greater speed and reliability.

R&D Manager of PARIFEX
By linking license plate recognition to databases, the automated plate-reading system can instantly detect vehicles in violation, whether for speeding or entering regulated areas such as low-emission zones (LEZs). Integrating this technology with automated enforcement systems simplifies the management of fines, reducing the need for human intervention and speeding up the violation processing workflow.
PARIFEX has developed a powerful automatic license plate recognition system. It relies on a high-performance image processing algorithm that ensures optimal accuracy in character recognition. The system is designed to provide an extremely high confidence score for each character read, enhancing the reliability of the collected data. Each character on the plate is identified with great precision, even under challenging conditions such as high speeds, variable lighting, or dirty plates.
Practical Applications
Traffic Violation Enforcement
Access Control for Restricted Areas
Urban Security Monitoring
Traffic Violation Enforcement
ANPR streamlines the processing of traffic violations by enabling the instant detection of offending vehicles. This process reduces errors, speeds up the handling of violations, and ensures more consistent compliance with traffic laws. When a violation occurs, it is automatically recorded along with the vehicle’s license plate, date, time, and location. This information is then sent for processing, allowing a fine to be issued directly without human intervention.
Access Control for Restricted Areas
ANPR optimizes access control and management of restricted zones (LEZs, urban tolls, open-flow tolls, etc.) by automating vehicle recognition, speeding up information verification, and simplifying the application of tolls or fines. This makes zone management more efficient while contributing to infrastructure funding, reducing pollution, and improving air quality in urban areas.
License plate recognition also streamlines the handling of incoming and outgoing vehicle flows by automatically identifying vehicles, instantly verifying them against databases, automating payment processes without the need for human intervention, ensuring data tracking and traceability, and reducing the workload on staff, which can be a source of errors.
Perimeter Security
Automatic license plate recognition enhances urban security by enabling the rapid, automated identification of vehicles in a given area. ANPR cameras, installed at strategic points such as city entrances, streets, and parking lots, capture vehicle plates and instantly compare them against databases of wanted vehicles, including stolen cars or those involved in criminal activity. This allows authorities to quickly identify suspicious vehicles, track their movements in real time, and respond faster to protect the public.
