License plate recognition (LPR) and vehicle access control
Plate recognition on your existing cameras, with records, alerts and gatehouse integration.
OCR for ports and terminals: container, plate and seal read at the gate
Computer vision that reads container numbers (ISO 6346), license plates and seals and records damage, integrated with gate appointments and the terminal's TOS.
01The problem
Gates with manual checks of container, plate and seal create truck queues, typing errors and disputes over damage.
02How we solve it
Cameras and vision models read the container number, license plate and seal and capture damage images, checking them against the appointment and the terminal operating system (TOS).
03How it works
-
Gate
The truck enters the gate lane, where the cameras are installed.
-
Vision reads
The container number (ISO 6346), plate and seal are read automatically.
-
Check
The reads are checked against the appointment and the terminal operating system (TOS).
-
Record
The passage is recorded with images, including any damage.
04What changes in practice
A faster gate. Container, plate and seal read as the truck passes.
Fewer typing errors. Every read is checked against the appointment and the TOS.
Shorter disputes. Damage recorded with photo, date and time.
05What you get
- Container, plate and seal reading
- Matching against appointments and the TOS
- Photo record of damage
- Gate performance dashboard
06How the pilot works
- Scope
- One gate lane
- Timeline
- 6 to 10 weeks
What we measure
- correct read rate
- truck cycle time
- manual interventions
Metrics are agreed before we start. With the numbers in hand, you decide whether to move to production.

09Frequently asked questions
How much does an OCR system for a terminal gate cost?
Every project is quoted after a free assessment, based on scope, volume and the systems involved. You get a fixed-price proposal in writing before any work starts.
How long until OCR is running at the gate?
The pilot takes 6 to 10 weeks. Typical scope: one gate lane.
Does it integrate with our TOS?
Yes, through an API or file exchange with the terminal system.
Is the container check digit validated?
Yes. The number read is validated with the ISO 6346 check digit before it's compared with the appointment.
