ANPR again

[hertsbiker]

Hmm. ANPR has taken a gigantic stride forward, so I learnt recently. Not prepared to reveal my sources, but let's just say that the following no longer offer protection;-

1) small plates
2) dirty plates
3) angled plates
4) bike only rear-facing plates

However, what DOES give ANPR a hard time is

a) italics
b) other fonts
c) flip plates
d) laser diode at lense
e) obscured plates

The latest generation of s/w is very capable of scanning humungeous sized data bases for plates, in parts of a second.

The people most as risk from this ARE law abiding, correctly registered citizens going about their daily lives. The criminal is NOT at risk, as usual.

Don't be fooled, the war-on-speed has just stepped up to maximum strength, and it's got nothing to do with safety.

Question Hetrsbiker,....er whats a plate?

[smeagol]

hertsbiker, you missed out CDs, what if you strap a couple of them beside your plate. I've heard it turns your vehicle invisible

[craigw]

what do you mean flip plates ? And also how do you set the laser diode thing up, I've got most other avenues covered

[mondeoman]

Tempted to get some new plates made with the characters mixed up a bit, or even changed slightly ..........

if-red laser diode works best and aint visable to the human eye

What worries me carl, is that the average peeos belive the hype.

They dont relise we we are heading and what life will be like in the new uk 10 years from now.

I know to aint somewhere, i want too live.

bring on 2004 when we all need the microchips in the plates, then we're all fd..

Sorry to say this but ANPR is further ahead than that. The only thing limiting its roll out is the man power needed to deal with information it throws out.

That was what I heard too.

IR diode seems like a good bet.

Flip plate? ask Denny!

[DennisTheMenace]

A flip what ? dont know what your on about :walksawaywhistling:

[chimburt]

from previous discussion i didn't think anyone had come up with a workable solution involving pointing light at cameras and blinding them.

please let us know if anyone has cracked this!

[DanH]

If they are video cameras, whats stopping people just burning out the CCDs with lasers? The military developed all that shit 10 years ago I thought?

Can't be that hard...
