abdelm01 0 Posted March 13, 2015 After the shot has already been recorded? Take a screenshot and post it. Most likely you won't be able to tell the car tag nor the color if that camera is not tailored to pick up tags. If you just have the IRs on at night and hope that you will see the tags, most likely you won't, the IRs will bounce right off of the tag and all you will see is a bright spot. What kind of camera do you have. Some cameras you will have to tailor just o read tags on cars and if its a very dark area, you will only see the tags and not the color of the car. The best way is to get a LPR IP Camera. Look on youtube for LPR Cameras and see there videos and see if thats what you are meaning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can see my results with setting up a number plate capture system. Buellwinkel shows how he did it with a standard Hikvision bullet with the built in IR's Buellwinklel also did an excellent post over at Network Camera Critic about number plate capture and recognition. It is worth a read for anyone thinking about undertaking number plate capture, particularly at night. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BTW I took the screen shot On given distance and FOV u can forget about capturing plate Lol, i was about to say the same thing ak357, impossible to capture those plates at that distance. If you want to capture at that distance, you would need a gigapixel camera at that distance lol. Your best option is to have a camera with a lens not less than 3MP 32mm lens and preferable mounted close to eye level with the plates, or just buy you a PTZ and and keep it zoomed in the position were you see licenses plates, preferable a 30X 2MP PTZ or a LPR PTZ.
