New Features and Enhancements
IntLab:
- Integrated the IntLab container number recognition engine
- IntLab now offers use of all SDKs in parallel (freight carriages, passenger carriages, international numbering and containers).
- IntLab is now capable of verifying checksums for recognized carriage numbers
- IntLab now includes an updated tool for manual settings creation via JSON files. Now you can adjust settings for both master and auxiliary channels.
- IntLab now includes a new frame display engine for better visibility of license plates. The engine can be engaged with the Intlab.BestFrame registry key
- IntLab is now based on updated recognition logic. Recognition now starts and stops with a macro. The macro can be linked to any events
AutoUragan:
- Updated the AutoUragan LPR module to the version 3.7: added new national formats and templates, increased operational stability
- SDK versions are now selectable (3.5 or 3.7)
- In AutoUragan, introduced separate configurators of active templates for SDK v.3.5 and 3.7.
- "Parallel" and "Number of CPUs" settings are now common for all recognition channels. If you change settings for a particular channel, they are automatically applied to all channels
VIT:
- The VIT ANPR recognition module is updated to version 2.7.2: added new national formats and templates, increased recognition quality and stability; the GUI now includes tools for fine-tuning the module
- The VIT module now includes an option to set an arbitrary polygonal detection area over a camera image
- VIT ANPR now offers an option to set templates for ignored numbers as regular expressions
- For VIT, the VIT.TimeoutLostNumber key is added. If the key is active, Number Lost event is generated each time a vehicle exits the recognition area. This key sets a time interval (in ms) after which the system checks for the presence of the number within the area
- The PATH environment variable now does not require adding the full path to the VIT module.
CARMEN ANPR:
- CARMEN ANPR now supports searches for license plate numbers containing spaces
- If the CARMEN ANPR module is in Parking mode (ParkingMode = 1), the ‘Enable on motion detection trigger’ setting is always active
General improvements:
- LPR Server is now called LPR Channel
- ARH-Containers module now includes timeout setting which allows specifying time period for displaying recognition results for slower trains. Increased cargo containers recognition quality in the CARMEN module
- CARMEN rail car recognition now has a configurable Recognition frame rate parameter (in fps)
- Updated the IntelliVision LPR module. Added support for new national license plate formats and GPU, increased overall recognition quality
- Basic virtual loop is now replaced with IntelliVision virtual loop (extra license required)
- Search by numbers now includes a Direction Not detected filter
- Recognition reports now may include license plate categories (taxi, police, military, etc.)
- For carriage recognition channels, you can now save still frames from an auxiliary camera. You may include such a still frame in a recognition report
- The recognition on request now includes an option to set the required recognition priority: maximum pixel dimensions, maximum reliability, or national identity
- To reduce database access time and increase stability, number plate images now can be stored in a dedicated folder on an HDD (with the LprDB.Use registry key)
- The installer package now offers an option to specify a destination folder in which to store number plate images
- For countries with no vehicle area codes, Online Monitor now allows disabling area code display
- During recognition, Online Monitor is now capable of displaying fields from external database
- On recognition of Hazardous Cargo plates, Online Monitor displays category and composition of the freight
- Event Viewer now displays Arabic numbers in one line with extended interval between characters

- In the absence of alarms, Online Monitor hides the Alarm tab
- Online Monitor now allows you to set type and size of the font for recognized numbers
- Online Monitor is now protected against alarm panel overflow with the ‘Delete alarms together with the LP’ setting. If the panel is full, the oldest entry in it is deleted along with all entries linked to the same vehicle number
- LprRemote.NearestTime registry key is now more easily configured via a separate terminal window. Frame's time stamp is displayed in real time for easier latency calculation
- The RemoteLpr.x.NearestTime parameter is now applied individually for each server (x = Server ID)
- If you change parameters of a Recognition on Request object, the Intellect core receives an event containing the full list of the object's parameters.
- Upon recognition of a number, camera number and ID are recorded into the DB. Online Monitor now displays the camera name in search results window. You can now search recognized numbers by camera name
- Introduced the SaveFilterToDB key that sets recording of filtered numbers to DB on or off
- Traffic Violations Detection offers an option to set an arbitrary recognition area
- Motorcycles are omitted from the Traffic Monitor GUI, since the engine does not support this function
- In Online Monitor, manually launched alarms are now displayed in a dedicated window, and the alarms themselves are marked as Marked by the Operator
- Optimized display of large number plates
- Integrated a 64-bit reporting module
- You can now fine-tune the Traffic Violations Detection module with a set of registry keys. The Alarms.LimitedByBestResult key allows you to ignore all frames following the best quality frame detected by the recognition engine. The Alarms.CrossWalkOne key allows you to generate an alarm event when a number recognized on a pedestrian crossing, even if a vehicle does not move
- You can now specify the same camera for different recognition on request channels
- External DB's interface now includes text search across all fields except "Active"
- You can now search recognized numbers by a text comment from an external number database
- The external DB connection wizard is now capable of creating number databases from templates
- Added the vehicle type recognition neural network–based module capable of classifying passenger cars, vans, buses, trucks and motorcycles. The module is licensed per channel
- Added the Ulpr.NumberDetectedRestartTimeout registry key that allows re-initializing number recognition channels after a specified period during which no numbers were recognized
- The product does not contain AxxonSoft and CARMEN Parking recognition modules anymore.
