CitySync’s JellyBean ANPR camera
3267 CitySync is offering an array of new tools for the traffic sector. The JellyBean is a mobile automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) camera aimed at use by enforcement agencies and is designed specifically to be mounted on police vehicles. This advanced dual ANPR camera incorporates mono and colour overview cameras, uses sophisticated infra-red LED technology and features a compact and durable casing. The unit allows number plates to be captured at a range of up to 18m from vehicles passing at high speed and can be mounted on a vehicle roof or lightbar facing to the front, rear or side. The JetMobile in car system has been developed with considerable input from police officers and is said to be easy to use. A touch screen interface allows quick selection of functions.

The JetBOF ANPR back office package provides storage, matching and reporting of data using a 2794 Microsoft SQL server database. The system can be used to manage large and complex fixed site, in-car and mobile ANPR systems for police, customs and local authorities. JetBOF can receive, process and store millions of reads/day together with associated plate and overview images or motion video clips and data can be archived and stored for many years if required.

The Jet-JTMS system is a modular journey time monitoring tool  that uses infra red cameras positioned at critical nodes around a city or along highways. These cameras read vehicle license plates in real time as traffic passes. Accurate ANPR processing takes place in the camera or at the roadside and the data is continuously transmitted back to a central JTMS Server which processes this traffic data and produces accurate up to the minute journey time data for any set of nodes.  This data can then be exported to other traffic management systems.

The JetCam Bollard ANPR camera has been redesigned and suits duties in car parks and access control systems. Its improved stainless steel housing provides a mounting for the ANPR camera at roughly the same height as front car plates.
