NEDAP ANPR LUMO
The Nedap ANPR Lumo is an all-in-one, intelligent License Plate Security Camera. Specifically, it is built for vehicle access system, parking management, and automated toll systems. Furthermore, it functions as a fully autonomous, standalone unit. Therefore, it packs the camera sensor, an optimized IR illuminator, and deep-learning software inside one weatherproof housing. Moreover, this device processes optical character recognition locally on the edge. Consequently, it completely eliminates the need for external processing servers or recurring software licensing fees.
BENEFITS
ALL-IN-ONE AUTONOMOUS OPERATION
This unit functions as a complete, stand-alone solution. Specifically, it embeds the camera software, analyzer, and IR illuminator inside a single device. Consequently, it requires no additional software or external processing servers to operate.
HIGH-ACCURACY DEEP LEARNING
It utilizes advanced deep learning algorithms to achieve precise recognition across both standardized formats (such as European plates) and non-standardized variations (such as the USA and Pacific regions). It can also read ADR Hazard Identification Numbers (HIN/Kemler Codes) for hazardous material transport.
BUILT-IN ACCESS SYSTEM MANAGEMENT
The web-based software supports localized, time-based access lists—including whitelists, blacklists, and ignore lists— capable of storing up to 100,000 individual license plates directly on the camera.
VERSATILE VEHICLE DEPLOYMENT
The camera ensures smooth vehicle recognition across an adjustable range of 6.5 to 33 feet (2 to 10 meters). It handless free-flow applications with speeds up to 130 km/h, or triggered applications up to 250 km/h, making it an ideal alternative where deploying physical RFID tags is undesirable.
BROAD GLOBAL COMPATIBILITY
It provides worldwide license plate coverage for IR-reflective plates, coming pre-loaded with 5 classifiers covering 28 countries, with additional regional classifiers available for easy download.
SEAMLESS INTERFACE & SECURITY INTEGRATION
It natively supports industry-standard communication interfaces—including Wiegand (converting reads into ID strings for standard panels), RS485, and Ethernet. For enhanced cybersecurity, it supports Open Supervised Device Protocol (OSDP v2) with secure channel communication.
FLEXIBLE THIRD-PARTY EXTENSIBILITY
It features a built-in REST API that allows third-party systems to easily request the last read license plate, programmatically add plates to the whitelist, and customize data messaging syntax.
SIMPLE INSTALLATION AND SETUP
It includes a standard pole/wall mounting bracket that allows installers to adjust the camera to the optimal angle for reliable reading. configuration is simplified through a user-friendly web interface for setting up digital I/O, regions of interest, and custom network settings.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The Nedap ANPR Lumo operates through an integrated, edge-based process to detect vehicle and transmit data to an access system network for security cameras Miami.
Integrated Capture and Illumination
As a vehicle enters the camera’s detection zone, the built-in 850 nm Infrared (IR) illuminator lights up to license plate. The camera’s 1/1.8” CMOS sensor captures the image of the IR-reflective plate at a distance of 6.5 to 33 feet (2 to 10 meters).
Edge-Based Processing
The embedded analyzer and pre-loaded software process the image directly on the camera, eliminating the need for an external server.
Deep Learning Recognition
Onboard deep learning algorithms and regional classifiers analyze the captured image to read the characters, accurately interpreting both standardized and non-standardized license plate formats, as well as ADR Hazard Identification Numbers (Kemler Codes).
Local Access Evaluation (Stand-alone Mode)
If configured as a stand-alone solution, the camera cross-references the recognized plate against an internal, web-managed access list (supporting up to 100,000 plates) to check time-based white lists, black lists, or ignore lists.
Data Conversion and Output
The camera converts the recognized license plate characters into the required network protocol or data string. For standard physical security integration, it translates the plate number directly into a Wiegand ID string.
Transmission to Controllers
Finally, the device transmits the data or trigger command to an access system panel, parking system, or third-party software using its digital I/O, a REST API, Ethernet, Wiegand, or a secure RS485 connection via OSDP v2.
WHERE NEDAP ANPR LUMO CAN BE INSTALLED?
PHYSICAL MOUNTING LOCATIONS
The camera comes standard with a universal mounting bracket allowing it to be physically installed on:
Poles
Mounted directly onto a pole positioned either in front of or directly behind a vehicle traffic gate or barrier arm.
Walls
Bolted securely to the exterior walls of buildings, guard booths, or parking structures adjacent to a driving lane.
Overhead Structures
Installed directly above the center of a traffic lane (such as on gantry cranes, ceiling structures in parking garages, or overhead beams) to look straight down at arriving vehicles.
At Bumper Height (Behind the Barrier)
If space allows and the line of sight is clear, it can be mounted low to the ground at bumper height (approx. 0.5 meters high) roughly 1 to 3 meters behind a gate or barrier to capture plates right at the stop line.
OPERATIONAL APPLICATION ENVIRONMENTS
Because of its IP65 weatherproof rating and wide operating temperature range (-20°C to +55°C), the ANPR Lumo can be installed in harsh indoors or outdoor settings for:
Parking Facilities
Used at the entrances and exits of commercial parking garages, corporate complexes, and residential communities.
Barrier-Controlled Access Gates
Installed at gated secure facilities to trigger automatic gate openings for authorizes personnel or whitelisted visitors.
Free-flow Traffic Lanes
Positioned along toll roads, open access roads, or checkpoint lanes where it can scan vehicles traveling up to 130 km/h in free-run mode or up to 250 km/h when linked to an external lane trigger.
Industrial Sites & Logistics Hubs
Placed at security checkpoints for shipping yards or chemical plants to log incoming trucks and track ADR Hazard Identification Numbers (dangerous goods transport labels).
KEY SPATIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR INSTALLATION
To ensure successful license plate recognition during installation, the camera must be positioned to meet these structural parameters:
Read Distance
The target area must be located between 6.5 to 33 feet) (2 to 10 meters) away from the camera lens.
Lane Width
Tha camera covers up to 11.5 feet (3.5 meters) of space, meaning it should be dedicated to one traffic lane at a time.
Capture Angle
The horizontal and vertical viewing angle between the camera lens and the vehicle’s license plate should ideally be kept under 25 degrees to avoid reading errors.
