Best License Plate Capture Systems

[coincarwash.ca]

I am looking for the best License Plate Capture Systems camera.
I need one that can zero in on a moving car in a 20 foot wide enternce.

The recording system is at least as important as the camera. You need one with a high resolution capture image so the plates are legible. A friend and I put together a PC with an AverMedia capture card that came with software to read and record plate numbers into a document.

I use a high-end Sony camera with a zoom lens, but it misses a lot of tags. If they're moving too fast or if there's too much light shining on the lens the tag can't be read. I'm thinking of getting a 3 megapixel IP camera which will work with less light and gives a much higher resolution image than any of the usual RCA or BNC cabled cameras.

There are speed bump cameras that seem ideal, but I'm sure in Canada it would spend a lot of time covered in snow.

This is kind of interesting video of police and license plate recognition software,
and this will probably give us better cameras in the future, at our price level
