IC Realtime introduces the IPEL-B40V-LPR1, a next-generation 4MP License Plate Recognition (LPR) network camera, designed to replace its predecessor, the 2MP model, and equipped with dual illumination capabilities featuring infrared (IR) and white light. Built with a high-performance 1/1.8'' CMOS image sensor, this camera captures sharp 4MP video at 30 frames per second, capturing plates in vehicles traveling up to 75 MPH while delivering superior image clarity and detail. The 8 mm–32 mm motorized varifocal lens provides flexible zooming with an angle of view between 62.8° and 2.6°, making it highly adaptable for monitoring various locations. Its robust size of 15.55" × 4.76" × 5.03" ensures durability and high performance in demanding environments.
Supporting H.265 video compression with dual-stream encoding, the IPEL-B40V-LPR1 optimizes bandwidth efficiency while maintaining excellent video quality. The camera's 140dB true Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) and 3D Noise Reduction (3DNR) guarantee clear, high-contrast footage, even in challenging lighting conditions.
This LPR camera captures license plates with a vehicle capture rate of 99% when installed under recommended lighting conditions, making it one of the most reliable solutions available. It operates effectively within a capture distance of 26.25 ft to 65.62 ft (8 m to 20 m), with a detection width ranging from 19.69 ft to 26.25 ft (6 m to 8 m), ensuring broad coverage for vehicle surveillance.
Engineered for durability, the IPEL-B40V-LPR1 is both IP67-rated for weather resistance and IK10-rated for vandal resistance, making it ideal for outdoor installations. It can be powered via PoE (802.3at, Type 2, Class 4) or 12V DC, with a maximum power consumption of 17 W. The camera also supports up to 64GB of onboard microSD storage, allowing for local video recording. ONVIF S compliance ensures compatibility with a wide range of third-party systems, providing flexibility and ease of integration.
The IPEL-B40V-LPR1 is fully compatible with IC Realtime’s IC View+ mobile app for iOS and Android, and the IC Now desktop software, enabling easy remote access and control. Covered by IC Realtime’s 10-year warranty and backed by excellent technical support, this LPR camera delivers the performance, reliability, and intelligence needed for advanced license plate recognition and comprehensive monitoring solutions.
The IPEL-B40V-LPR1 also features intelligent video surveillance (IVS) capabilities such as Intrusion and Loitering detection, allowing for advanced monitoring of restricted or sensitive areas. Its seamless integration with ANPR-supported NVRs provides powerful video search and retrieval capabilities based on license plate data, enhancing its functionality in security and traffic management applications. The camera also includes a built-in microphone, 2W speakers, and an audio output port that supports custom audio broadcasting via text-to-speech, adding a unique layer of interactivity.
For night-time operations, the camera is equipped with two adjustable 730 nm IR illuminators and two warm white LED lights, ensuring clear license plate capture up to 65.62 ft (20 m) in 0 lux environments. The camera’s overall monitoring range extends to 196.85 ft (60 m), and it can capture full-color video down to 0.001 lux at F1.6, delivering vibrant images even in ultra-low light. Additionally, blue and red LED indicator lights enhance visibility and functionality in various conditions.
