Bolt-On RoboPlate ANPR Software Options
For power users of ANPR equipment we have written our own software program called ANPR COMMAND CENTRE. This software makes it easy for the user to have more than the 3 black, white and grey lists and create as many as they want to trigger various actions. You could for example have a VIP list, Customer list, Staff list, Courier list etc.
The software allows additional flexibility to trigger alarm actions based on if X & Y happens then a certain event is triggered. The additional software also makes handling large volumes of registrations easier. The software is an add on and the cameras themselves can do the basic ANPR functions as a stand alone item.
In addition to the ANPR COMMAND CENTRE software a lightweight pop-up widget is available for PCs called RegWATCH that will display the live image and a pop up message from the camera when a registration match is made to its built in white or black list.

How It Works
The software receives recognition results and full frame images from the ANPR cameras via the network and files these in a database for future retrieval. It checks those results against its vehicle database and, subject to a successful match, can automatically generate network triggers, emails, audio and visual notifications.
Dual Cameras
The Command Centre software can receive results from 2 cameras simultaneously. A live video feed is normally displayed for the operator but this can be switched off if not needed or when unattended.
Groups, Group Memberships and Scheduling
The software supports vehicle groups, named in a friendly manner these help categorize particular vehicles, you may for example have groups for normal staff, security staff, VIPs or contractors. For maximum flexibility, vehicles may be a member of multiple groups.
A schedule can be applied to each group specifying an active time period for specific days of the week. Subject to this schedule any of the defined actions may be triggered to happen.
Vehicle Records
Day to day admin of vehicle registrations is made into an easy task for operators by using a familiar Windows interface and additional information such as vehicle make, model, colour, owner can all be appended to the record. These details are displayed on-screen when a match is detected too. Lists can be maintained using a simple upload facility.
Database Search
The Command Centre software has extensive search facilities by date, owner or (partial) plate with a snapshot captured that can be saved for later use.
Subject to Detection Actions
A powerful aspect of this software is the ability to perform immediate, or delayed actions subject to detection of a particular registration plate including:
- Audio & Visual notification via the PC
- Audio announcement via a networked VoiceOFF
- Triggering of a network attached relay
Summary
A great solution for Enterprise users offering additional list membership, advanced scheduling, easy database searching, powerful relay triggering and comprehensive report outputs.
RoboPlate RegWatch Widget
If you want the RoboPlate camera to send pop up messages over a network when it gets a match, we've also written a simple widget.
You'll need to install it on a PC and when the camera detects a number plate the window will pop up on the screen showing the live video stream on your PC, an audio file can be played and a windows notification received with a simple text message too.
RoboPlate FTP Server
RoboPlate cameras have file transfer capability built in, they are able to send ANPR results in the form of a .jpg image to an FTP server.
We have written an easy-to-use RoboPlate specific FTP server capable of receiving those images and filing them on a per-camera basis. A Windows® embedded file browser allows the operator to navigate the received files, viewing them in various ways: large or small icons/thumbnails, details or list view.
The files are intuitively named by list type (B/W/G) and dated for easy sorting and location. They are stored in dated folders making file maintenance very easy.
