The gate that knows who’s allowed in.

The camera reads each plate as the vehicle arrives. Residents and expected trucks go straight through; unknown or blocked vehicles are held for the guard — and every entry is logged with a photo.

The problem

“The guard writes vehicle numbers in a register at the gate.”
The problem this demo is built to solveLive demo · sample data

What is ANPR software?

ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) software reads vehicle number plates from a camera at a gate or car park. It matches each plate against lists — residents, staff, expected deliveries, blocked vehicles — opens the boom barrier for known vehicles, holds unknown ones for the guard, and logs every entry and exit with a photo and time.

Built around your workflow: this demo is a starting point — screens, fields, rules and integrations are made to fit your business.

How the system works · how we measured

In the demo a plate matched to the residents list opens the barrier and logs the entry; unclear or unknown plates are held for the guard instead.

01 · The problem

What problem does it solve?

A 600-flat society has one main gate and a queue of cars every morning. Guards write numbers in a register, wave in familiar cars, and can’t check anyone at peak hour.

When a resident’s car was scratched in the parking, nobody could say which vehicles had come in that evening.

  • Queues at the gate

    Every car stops for the register.

  • Unchecked entry

    Familiar-looking cars waved in.

  • No record

    Handwritten numbers nobody can search.

  • Guard load

    Too much to check at peak hour.

02 · The solution

How does Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) fix it?

  1. 01

    Read every plate

    A camera at the lane reads Indian number plates, day and night, with a model trained for local formats and fonts.

  2. 02

    Match against lists

    Residents, staff, expected deliveries and blocked vehicles — kept up to date by the office.

  3. 03

    Open or hold

    Known vehicles open the barrier; unknown, blocked or unclear plates are held for the guard.

  4. 04

    Log everything

    Plate, photo, time and direction for every vehicle, searchable later.

FAQ

Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) FAQ

All questions →
What is ANPR software?

ANPR (automatic number plate recognition) software reads vehicle number plates from a camera at a gate or car park. It matches each plate against lists — residents, staff, expected deliveries, blocked vehicles — opens the boom barrier for known vehicles, holds unknown ones for the guard, and logs every entry and exit with a photo and time.

Can we use our existing CCTV cameras?

Sometimes. Plate reading needs the right angle, zoom and night lighting; we check your cameras on site and suggest a dedicated one only where needed.

Does it read Indian number plates reliably?

Models trained on Indian plates handle the usual fonts and layouts, including two-wheelers and HSRP plates. Dirty, damaged or fancy plates are held for the guard rather than guessed.

What does sensitivity do?

It sets how sure the system must be before acting. Higher sensitivity holds more vehicles for a guard to check; lower lets more through.

Does it work at night?

Yes, with infrared lighting at the lane — part of the site survey.

Can it charge for parking?

As an add-on, entry and exit times give the duration, and fees can be collected by UPI or FASTag.
