I've been struggling with a Uniview PTZ that I am using for LPR. I am trying to use this camera to capture plates at 140-160ft away, and when the camera is in focus, I am able to read the plates clearly. It works w/o any issues during the day time, AF is fast and there isnt much work needed to...
Congrats on the camera. I have a bunch of them and I use it for LPR, and it works pretty well. The IR could be a little stronger, but it works fine up to about 100ft. Be careful with waterproofing if you are running it on POE, make extra sure the ethernet connector is dry, otherwise it will...
Nice! I'm up to maybe 6000 or so plates now, and I'm looking forward to better OCR. I find myself repeatedly correct the same OCR errors over and over.
Hi, I have a few uniview cameras (they are re-branded, but the firmware is essentially the same) and a good way to test the API is just calling it to display the basic settings:
curl --digest -u admin:password -X GET -H 'Content-Type: application/json' http://192.168.1.100/LAPI/V1.0/System/Time...
They are decent enough cameras for use outside of LPR, just know the firmware seems to have disabled the audio (no config in the UI) but the leads for audio in are there.

The 4th gen (VSR-42-9xx) is what I am using. It's POE and the controller is a Raspberry Pi module, so fairly hackable. It's just an rtsp feed, so works w/o much fuss with BI. The magic is how...
I'm using Vigilant/Motorola LPR cameras taken off police cars. They were only $100 on eBay, unfortunately all of them are sold out, otherwise I would buy a few more.
I'm really looking forward to the training features. My camera setup might yield good data for training since I am using a dual lens setup. The color images are sometimes difficult to read, but the IR allows me to correct misreads with great accuracy. Hoping the color images with the correct...
I just went to .28 and it works now, no changes needed to auto start (the option remains grayed out) and now the model list is populated properly on my CPAI running on another machine.
Yeah, I think once we are able to train our own models, or submit images for training, we can supply temp plates from our state and maybe be able to have CPAI be able to distinguish the differences between "normal" dealer-issued temp plates vs perm plates. With this, maybe you can add a...
Here is an example of what I assume is a fake temp paper license plate. You can clearly see the photo copy misalignment and an expiration date of August 2025. Per CA Vehicle Code 4456, Section 3, Part C, paper plates are valid for only 90 days. Also, temp plates do not have perm plate...
Yeah, I've done this about a dozen times. I get a folder browser, it does not pull up a list. On version older than .25, it pulls up the list similar to yours.
This is definitely the issue I am having with the latest version of BI. I did a wireshark capture and BI never sends any packets to CPAI that is running on a different server. If I swap back to an older release without any other changes, packets are sent from BI to CPAI. It's not a firewall...
