POINT GREY TRAFFIC AND SURVEILLANCE CAMERAS
By applying machine vision technology to solve ITS problems, providers reach the market faster and cheaper. To address a wide variety of ITS application, Point Grey cameras come in a selection of digital interfaces, sensors, price points, and may board-level or boxed.
Automated Tolling
In recent years, with the use of digital camera technology, new tolling practices have drastically increased the throughput and accuracy of toll charges. Cameras are used to
capture images of fast moving vehicles for the purpose of automatic number plate recognition (ANPR/ALPR). Point Grey's triggering accuracy ensures consistent vehicle positioning in the field of view by synchronizing image capture with vehicle detection methods such as ground loops, radar, or laser devices. Sensors used in Point Grey's cameras have been specifically chosen for their high sensitivity and ability to capture crisp, undistorted images.
Traffic Enforcement
The use of traffic cameras puts more eyes on the road with the aim of improving driving behaviour for safer roads. Digital camera technology can be used for vehicle identification, speed detection, and red light violations. Point Grey cameras feature image compression ideally suited for efficient storage and image transfer across bandwidth limited interfaces. With ONVIF support, Point Grey cameras can be integrated with popular traffic monitoring and security software.
Safety and Security
Digital cameras are used in biometrics for facial recognition. Applications such as border control rely on digital camera technology for the ability to quickly and accurately identify individuals. Point Grey high quality images provide low noise, high dynamic range, and the resolution required for complex image processing.

The Zebra2 combines the capabilities of a machine vision and an IP camera in a single package. The Zebra2 fulfills a growing demand in traffic, surveillance and process monitoring installations that require real-time viewing in addition to image storage or post processing such as ALPR/ANPR and incidence analysis. To accomplish this task, the Zebra2 sends uncompressed video over HD-SDI as well as MJPEG compressed or uncompressed images over Gigabit Ethernet. |
