Product description       PRICING

 The I-Cube License Plate recognition product is a sophisticated image processing system that tracks the cars’ plates, reads and identifies their numbers. The identified number is displayed on the system display, and can be transferred to an external computer (with RS232 line) or to other Windows applications (with DDE messages), or via the network (with TCP/IP using networking option). The image file(s) can also be saved on disk.

  The system can be placed at the side of a traffic lane or in any other location that requires automatic identification. It is used any various types of Security, Parking and Traffic applications. Each unit can control up to six traffic lanes and is versatile in the possible application configurations using on-line settings.

System Architecture

    See/Lane is a turn-key system comprises of the following elements:

   ·   a PC Pentium running Windows 98/NT/2000

   ·   See/Car DLL - which is used to analyze the images and extract license plate string.

   ·   Camera/Illumination unit to capture the images (See/Car/Head – Hi-Tech Solution’s LPR camera and illumination unit)

   ·   a Frame Grabber - which captures the images from the camera units (handles 1-6 lanes)

   ·    I/O card – input/output board with multiple I/O discrete lines. This board supports the sensors, illumination control and optional gate-open signal. It is connected via a cable to a terminal interface board with easy connections and indicator lights.

   ·   Sensors to indicate the presence of the car (a sensor for each lane)

   ·   See/Lane The See/Lane Windows application interfaces the hardware elements (frame grabber, camera/illumination unit (s), IO card and sensor). It controls the illumination, reads the video inputs and passes the images to the DLL in order to obtain the recognition results. The application displays the image and recognition results. It then exports the results using serial communication, messages or disk files. Its man-machine interface supports on-line setting control, which can easily adapt the application to various types of configurations.

   A breakdown of the See/Lane system is shown in the following illustration, which shows a typical configuration of a See/Lane LPR system (for example, for 2-lanes-in and 2-lanes-out access control system).

                The See/Lane application runs as a background Windows application in the PC (shown in the center), and interfaces to a set of See/Car/Head camera/illumination  units (one for each vehicle) which are interfaced by the frame grabber.    The application controls the sensors and controls via an I/O card that is connected through a terminal block to the inputs and outputs.   The application can send results through serial RS232 communication, and reports the information via inter-application DDE messages to Client application (s).

 The See/Lane hardware and software elements are ordered from I-Cube as a full turn-key system.  I-Cube will provide as much or as little of the equipment you need.  If you want a fully configured system, I.E. everything provided, just open the box and plug it in, we will do that, however, if you only need certain parts, I-Cube will provide just those aspects required.  You select which is best for your application.
