Modular ANPR/LPR camera to make the most out of every ANPR system
The new Freeway ANPR camera
is ARH’s workhorse camera purpose-built for ANPR. The camera is available in several configurations to satisfy every costumer’s need: from the cost efficient WVGA and HD versions – already capable of capturing images of vehicles with the aim of catching each vehicle’s license plate even at high speed (up to 255 km/h or 158.5 mph) – to the high-end FreewayCAM FHD DUAL, which provides everything that a state of the art ANPR camera can offer. All three models are optimized for the CARMEN® ANPR engine, the World’s No. 1 plate recognition engine, which is an original product developed by ARH.FreewayCAM FHD DUAL’s second sensor serves as part of ARH’s proprietary Advanced Vision technology, which allows unparalleled plate recognition rates and exceptionally efficient operation – further enhanced by an image-based Vehicle Detection (VehDet) and the camera’s built in parity flashing smart illumination.
Optional add-ons to FreewayCAM include a fully compatible plug-and-play RAD-AR module and extra illuminators. The camera’s event manager allows users to customize the imaging trigger. Powerful solutions to minimize required bandwidth feature motion detection, vehicle detection and image compression.
The camera is protected by an IK10 & IP 67 vandal proof housing. We believe in what we create, which is why FreewayCAM WVGA has a 1-year, while the HDx and the FHD DUAL version have an extended 3-year manufacturer’s warranty.

BENEFITS
FreewayCAM offers:
- Vehicle imaging perfect for Automatic Number Plate Recognition
- Taking images of license plates to be processed in a central hub
- Motion Detection and/or Vehicle Detection for image preselection and event management
- Multiple add-on components including illuminator, radar, induction loop etc.
- Taking glare-free and shadow-free images, thanks to auto brightness and built-in illuminators
- Operating very fast, potentially forwarding 8 different outputs simultaneously
- Spotting vehicles rather than plates, thanks to its integrated image-based VehDet algorithm
- Applications where license plate recognition is performed centrally (rather than aboard the camera)
- Mission critical applications where extreme weather conditions (cold/heat) are an issue

Purpose-built for Automatic Number Plate Recognition
Providing optimal imaging for plate recognition, FreewayCAM serves as a tool for centrally performed ANPR systems of road toll collection. |
Certified average speed data can be generated by point-to-point speed measurement: plate matching plus time and location stamps. |
FreewayCAM, optimized for ANPR/LPR, is the ideal 24/7 data collecting endpoint for congestion charging schemes in free-flowing / stop-and-go traffic. |
FreewayCAM connected to an external ANPR engine and an added gate controller makes an ideal vehicle access control solution in all environments. |
Keeping track of incoming and outgoing vehicles, FreewayCAM as an ANPR camera increases site safety. |
The camera increases road safety and boosts traffic morale by providing images which can be used as legal evidence. |
As a fixed camera, FreewayCAM efficiently reads the license plate of offending vehicles caught at improper lane use or driving through red lights – in any weather or light condition. |
Effective automated license plate capturing simplifies border surveillance in all environments. |
FreewayCAM is seamlessly integrated into parking management and vehicle access control systems – like the ARH's ParkIT System. |
