FreewayCAM ANPR camera

The primary focus of the FreewayCAM development was to create a versatile ANPR camera for high speed traffic applications.

FreewayCAM is a digital IP camera in a compact, single enclosure equipped with IR LED illuminator.

The unique optical module with auto-adjustable shutter time and real-time motion detection based self-triggering ensures appropriate image capturing at virtually any speed, even up to 250 km/h (160 mph).

Key features and main benefits

• Hardware accelerated, built-in motion detection
• Auto day & night switch
• Automatic time synchronization (NTP)
• Adjustable image compression leads to low network load
• Still images and compressed live video streams (MJPEG)
• Powerful IR illumination with low power consumption
• Suitable for extreme operation environments: IP67 rating
• Options: megapixel resolution, color imaging and external illuminators

Application areas of FreewayCAM

• Tolling systems
• City congestion charging
• Journey time measurement
• All kinds of law enforcement applications
• Highway traffic surveillance
