Why Camera Design Matters in Open Road Tolling (ORT) and Multi-Lane Free Flow (MLFF)

Dilip Kumar
by Dilip Kumar
Open Road Tolling and Multi-Lane Free Flow systems must record each vehicle without interrupting traffic. The camera has a brief capture window to produce a plate image that OCR can read, and the tolling system can connect to the correct transaction. See how camera design supports multi-lane capture at highway...
