Smart Cities across India are deploying Intelligent Traffic Management Systems (ITMS) to enhance public safety, reduce traffic congestion, and automate law enforcement. At the heart of these deployments are high-precision ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) and RLVD (Red Light Violation Detection) camera systems.
Global Shutter vs Rolling Shutter
Standard security cameras use rolling shutters, which scan an image row by row. When a vehicle passes at high speed, this causes plate numbers to appear stretched or distorted. Smart city ANPR cameras employ Global Shutter sensors that capture the entire optical frame simultaneously in 1/10,000th of a second, delivering crystal-clear alphanumeric readability.
