In the January issue of Traffic Technology International, Tamron discussed the role of the lens in an image-recognition process and its specific role in ITS. And while it is clear that it is important to select a good quality lens for certain applications, it is also important to look at how installation processes and services could be simplified. In some ways, the ITS market could be defined as a merger between security and machine vision (MV) - with regard to the components that make up an ALPR image-capturing system. There are many machine vision camera manufacturers that use their knowledge and technology to provide cameras specially designed for ITS. The typical MV lenses attached to these cameras generally have a metal body, a fixed focal length, a manual iris, a compact size, a short MOD, and extremely high quality and resolution.
