Vellore: Vellore district police have installed Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) cameras at border check posts to auto-detect traffic offenders.
These cameras will capture the photograph of the number plates of vehicles and analyse data that is already fed into the system. The ANPR cameras will read the number plates and transfer the data to the data analyser which will identify whether the vehicle that has crossed through the check post was stolen or not. Vellore district superintendent of Police, Rajesh Kannan while speaking to IANS said: “The ANPR cameras are a valuable asset to trace down stolen vehicles as well as vehicles that were earlier used for crimes. The ANPR cameras will capture the number plate and feed the details to the data analysis which will give a report on whether the vehicle was stolen or even used for crime.”
