license plate reader
Traffic surveillance camera
A license plate reader is a camera system that automatically captures and records vehicle license plates, typically mounted on police cars, street poles, or toll booths.
The technology converts plate images to text and checks them against databases of stolen vehicles or wanted persons.
Privacy advocates raise concerns about mass surveillance: License plate readers tracked her movements across the city for months.
