Finnish Customs agency to use automated license plate capture

Extreme CCTV International Inc. has announced the installation of its REG license plate capture cameras at Finnish Customs at Karesuvanto, Finland.

The REG cameras are working in combination with software designed to process constant traffic flow in a very large number of traffic lanes at the Finnish-Swedish border. As a vehicle-mounted mobile ALPR (Automatic License Plate Recognition) platform, REG is also monitoring traffic at several temporary ice roads on the river between the two countries.

Exposed to freezing conditions, driving snow, high winds and long periods of darkness, the REG cameras are designed to deliver outstanding images of license plates for intelligent processing. Since it won the prestigious Security Industry Association's "Product Achievement Award," REG has become an important technology for security, vehicle surveillance and traffic applications.
