The following general ALPR analytics are available in SharpZ3 OS.

Confidence score

The camera can assign a confidence score to license plate reads. This value is given as a percentage and indicates how confident the system is in the accuracy of the read.
NOTE: License plates that contain similar characters such as 8 and B are more difficult to read and generally produce reads with a lower confidence score.

For information on how to enable the confidence score analytic, see Configuring SharpZ3 analytics in the SharpOS 13.7 Sharp Portal.

Some analytics involve direct measurement, for example character height. For other analytics, the results might not be as clear. For example, with the vehicle color analytic, it might be difficult to differentiate between certain colors in certain lighting.

  • State Name
