Thanks to ALPR cameras, a license plate can be logged into a database every time it’s spotted. This historical data allows law enforcement agencies to chart the course of a vehicle. As per Fox News, police nabbed a drug dealer after an AI looked through a database of 1.6 billion license plates over two years in just New York. According to the report, the tech deployed in the case was “Rekor Scout,” which Rekor claims “enables accurate license plate and vehicle recognition on nearly any IP, traffic, or security camera.”
The company notes that it takes merely 20 minutes to deploy Rekor Scout from the ground up before it starts reading and logging license plates. Aside from maintaining its own database, subject to local laws, it can also be integrated with tricks like a red alert system that raises an alarm every time a hot-listed license plate is spotted, all in real-time.
Notably, the cheapest Rekor Scout surveillance plan costs a mere $10 per camera every month. The more potent Pro plan — which costs $65 per camera for its monthly tier — can spot and save details including, but not limited to, car color, license plate number, vehicle make, model details, and even the direction that the car was traveling in.
Another vendor, DRN, claims to have a database of over 9 billion license plate scans that can be accessed by private parties, collecting hundreds of millions of data points every month.
