This is my first post here. I have searched, but I think I need specific advice. I have an existing camera setup of exclusively HDview brand NVR, 2 dome cameras and 2 bullet cameras from Amazon. One bullet set up on a Rekor server for LPR via RTSP, the other is zoomed in to catch vehicle occupants. The 2 domes are overview to catch good view of passing vehicles and vehicle occupants, which only works in daylight, and only if the sun is just right to not glare a reflection into the cameras. Subject vehicles are traveling about 40mph, angles are reaaonable. I have had about 50% success at catching plates and occupants. I need to increase my abilities.
I have a very particular need for LPR and overview for vehicle occupants. I am completely unsatisfied with the quality of the cameras from HDview and would like a substantial upgrade.
I was initially looking at Dahua, but am leaning more toward Hikvision. I don't know enough the compatablity issues of different branded cameras and NVRs. I am hoping someone can recommend me an NVR, bullet cameras with motorized zoom (my current HDview cameras are manual zoom and focus, and they are a major pain), and dome cameras with high enough resolution to catch good stills of vehicle occupants in a vehicle moving 40mph about 40 feet away if the lighting is right.
I want to stick with higher end features such as AI with facial recognition, vehicle recognition, etc. I am okay with continuing the monthly fees of $50 to rekor to keep ability to collect vehicle make and model, but if the NVR can do it itself, that's even better.
I also need this set up ASAP. Waiting a week or two is okay, but I cant wait more than that. So shipping time is important, i can't order from china and wait 30 days. Cost is important, but I have a budget that can go up to $2k if necessary.
Can anyone who knows what they are doing point me in the direction of a i who will help put together a kit or a few model numbers i can look up to replave my setup? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
