You can configure SharpZ3 cameras to ignore license plates where the angle of the plate is outside a certain range.

What you should know

  • For parking enforcement vehicles that monitor on-street parking, you can configure the plate tilt feature to exclude vehicles parked in driveways.
  • The Plate tilt angle value is included with each read and is visible in the Last reads section of the Camera feeds page.
IMPORTANT: The character height filter, plate tilt filter, and the region of interest work in conjunction to filter plate reads. Consider their combined affect when configuring and troubleshooting the system.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Sharp Portal.
  2. From the Configuration menu, click Analytics > Filters.
  3. From the Cameras menu, select the first SharpZ3 camera you want to configure.
  4. Adjust the Plate tilt filter as required to capture plates at the required angle.
    In the following example, the blue car is ignored due to the angle of the license plate.
  5. Click Save.

After you finish

Repeat these steps as required for other cameras in the Camera unit menu.
