ANPR systems use high-speed image capture and optical character recognition (OCR) to identify and decode license plate text without human intervention. This technology is widely used by law enforcement for tasks such as identifying stolen or unregistered vehicles, monitoring traffic violations, and tracking vehicles of interest.
