Camera mounting recommendations
Camera Mounting Angle:
The camera's mounting angle should not exceed 45°, ideal is to keep below 30°, but the recognition works well up to 45°.
This ensures that the camera captures the desired field of view without excessive tilting, which can affect the accuracy of the captured data.
Horizontal License Plate Alignment:
It is crucial to align the license plate image horizontally within the camera's field of view.
The license plate should not be tilted more than 5° horizontally. If the image appears tilted beyond this threshold, it is recommended to adjust the camera's position so that the license plate appears horizontally in the live stream.
Minimum License Plate size:
For rectangular (EU-style) license plates the minimum required width is 100 pixels, optimal is 130px. For american license plates types, min. 80 px is required, for plates with stacked symbols, 100px is recommended. Australian and New Zealand require also 100px for all plates. For license plates with two rows the optimal required width is 80 pixels.
