Vehicle entrances
Designed for the approach.
Not just the camera.
A useful number-plate-recognition installation considers mounting position, vehicle speed, lighting and the exact entrance. We review the site before making claims about what is achievable.
Entrance-first designPlan the camera view around the relevant lane, driveway or gate.
Readability checkedReview daylight and night conditions against the agreed use case.
Footage that helpsSet recording, alerts and access around the people who will review events.
Recognition performance depends on camera selection, mounting, lighting, vehicle movement and plate condition. We test the agreed view and document any limits.

Plate recognition planned around your entrance.
Capturing a registration needs a view designed for the plate itself. We assess vehicle paths, distance, speed, mounting height and lighting, then choose the UniFi Protect camera and position for the entrance, including dedicated AI-LPR hardware where appropriate. We test the actual capture view with your site in mind.

Planning, features and technical details
A registration capture, not just a wide view
An overview camera helps you see activity. Capturing a number plate needs a view designed for the plate itself. We assess vehicle paths, distance, speed, mounting height and lighting before choosing the camera and its position.
UniFi ANPR, planned around your entrance
Automatic number-plate recognition is also called ANPR or LPR. UniFi Protect supports number-plate recognition with suitable hardware, including the dedicated AI-LPR camera. We select the equipment for the entrance and test the actual capture view.
Find a vehicle event more easily
Recognised registration numbers can help you locate relevant vehicle footage in Protect. We show you how to search the captured events, review the original recording and export the useful clip. Recognition can be missed or incorrect, so the recording remains important.
Gate access where it fits
For a compatible UniFi Access gate setup, recognised authorised plates can be used as an access method. This needs the appropriate camera, gate hub, configuration and a suitable gate system. We assess compatibility and agree manual access and failure arrangements before including it.
A proper commissioning check
We agree the capture lane and expected operating conditions, fit the camera and cabling, configure recording and demonstrate searches. Where night-time capture is required, it forms part of the agreed testing. Retention, user access and the boundaries of the camera view are set around the site.

Can an ordinary security camera do this?
Some compatible UniFi cameras support recognition, but the lens and position still need to suit the entrance. A dedicated AI-LPR camera may be more appropriate for demanding capture conditions.
Does ANPR automatically open a gate?
Only when that integration is specifically designed and installed with compatible UniFi Access equipment and a suitable gate. Plate searching on its own does not provide gate control.
