The
UNDER VEHICLE SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
(UVSS) is uniquely designed
to use human nature as an effective force in aligning vehicles
over the Camera enabled speed
bump to capture and read license plates effectively.
All of us, at one time, or another have driven over or around
speed bumps that span streets or driveways. If the speed bump
tapers 2-3 ft. from a curb you will notice drivers moving their
vehicles to the right to lesson the speed bumps impact on their
vehicle. Also while driving, we try to miss objects in the
center of the road by driving over them.
This human nature aspect is the driving force in creating our
48”
UNDER VEHICLE SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
(UVSS)
system. Drivers
will automatically drive over (straddle) the speed bump, because
of its size, to miss it, and at the same time align their
vehicle in the camera’s view exposing their license plate to the
camera concealed within the speed bump. Therefore, speed bump
alignment is the first and primary part of capturing license
plate information.
Since the
UNDER VEHICLE SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
(UVSS) system uses
video cameras, a DVR (Digital Video Recorder) should be used in
conjunction with the UVSS. We recommend a DVR with a
recording rate of 30fps (frames per second), per channel, to
capture license plate images.
An example would be that a vehicle traveling 20 MPH (miles per
hour) over the speed bump would give the DVR approximately 8-10
frames to capture the license plate. Speeds, which are
increased, would lesson the capture rate; Speeds lower, will
increase the capture rate.
Specific application of the
UNDER VEHICLE SURVEILLANCE SYSTEM
(UVSS)
system can vary, however the products desired purpose, is to
capture, make available to record, then produce photographs of
license plates that include time, dated information for Law
Enforcement evaluation.

Example #1:
-
You manage, own or live in a
gated community;
-
You review the DVR for all
license plate activity during this time frame;
-
You compare your list of
vehicle license plate numbers for those who live
in your community against the recorded time
frame license plate activity; and
-
Then provide Law Enforcement
pictures of those license plates that did not
belong in your community during that time frame
to verify their visit.
Example #2:
-
You
own a fast food or other type of drive-through.
This might include bank teller, or payment
collection booths;
-
A vehicle drives up to your employee and commits
a robbery;
-
You have all ready date and time stamped this
vehicle license plate number; and
-
Now you can provide a license plate number
photograph, to Law Enforcement, which is date
and time stamped, even though your employee did
not see their license plate from their
position.

Do not
rely on witness recollection to give Law Enforcement the
tools they need!
