CIVICA and TETRA Tablet manufacturer TETRAtab to join forces

Until now, mobile ANPR in police vehicles was seen as a highly effective but expensive tool. Sophisticated multiple camera systems running on ‘fixed’ in-vehicle computing have been deployed in ‘specialist ANPR vehicles’ throughout the whole of UK Forces with spectacular results.

However, the cost of the ‘in vehicle’ hardware and the high fitting and licence / support costs have restricted the deployment of ANPR to a small number of specialist vehicles within forces. Fitting ANPR to general beat patrol and response vehicles has never been an affordable option.

Whilst the benefits of having ANPR in all ‘beat patrol’ vehicles in a force fleet are relatively clear, the cost of installing such a large number of units has been totally prohibitive, Until now…

With the launch of affordable rugged demountable computer systems such as TETRAtab C Series, the ability to provide simple CIVICA ANPR facilities to all general patrol vehicles is now a practical and affordable reality.

To develop this potential, CIVICA and TETRAtab have been working in partnership to deliver a highly innovative mobile ANPR solution is an affordable solution.

This ‘single lane’ solution was initially tested and trialled on West Mercia Community Safety ‘Speedwatch’ vans. This solution provides a highly affordable and easily deployable solution to provide ‘background’ ANPR intelligence gathering deployed in mobile / static ‘speedwatch’ vehicles.

This ‘speedwatch’ solution is now been offered nationally to all community safety partnerships and other organisations deploying mobile and or static camera vans etc…
