    Blue Iris and CodeProject.AI ALPR

    So I read the thread and set up BlueIris & CodeProjectAI, and everything is working great in terms of automatically capturing footage and recognizing license plates during the day. However, I do not get any alerts during night-time hours, my alerts basically start from say, 7am to 7pm and then...

    First foray into LPR, with IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E

    According to IPVM, it's ~132 ft from the camera to the capture point. Ok let me try it with 1/1000 and set the iris to <=40 to see if that gets me anything

    First foray into LPR, with IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E

    I adjusted the camera angle more, finally figured out that I can actually swivel the physical base of the camera as well so now I have the camera physically tilted ~45 degrees (maybe a bit more) and I'm capturing images in 1920x1080 instead of having to rotate the image 90 degrees. Note: for...

    First foray into LPR, with IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E

    I fiddled with it a bit more earlier in the day and it seems to start to pick up plates for ALPR at least during the day. Will have to check to see if it misses any tomorrow! Not having any luck at night though, have tried the various settings from other users on the forums. Will see if any of...

    First foray into LPR, with IPC-HFW5241E-Z12E

    I'm trying to see if I can get this done without having to get a ornamental lightpost or something like that closer to the road, ha. Will play with the zoom some more and see if I can get a better image of the plates sufficient for LPR and change the angle a bit more to try and get a straighter shot

    Hello Andy, still new to the LPR thing but it looks like IPC-HFW5231E-Z12 has been recommended as a good one. What is the pricing for one of these shipped to Charlotte, NC? Also, are there any better alternatives?
