LVT and Insight LPR Partner to Launch Mobile License Plate Recognition

The collaboration integrates high-accuracy plate detection into rapidly deployable units for retail, construction, and property management.

LiveView Technologies (LVT) is expanding its mobile surveillance capabilities through a new partnership with Insight LPR, bringing automated license plate recognition (LPR) to locations where fixed infrastructure is unavailable.

The integration allows private-sector customers in industries such as retail, logistics, and construction to deploy plate-reading technology on mobile units. The system is designed to address a growing demand for security in temporary or high-risk environments, including retail parking lots facing organized retail crime and multifamily housing developments.

The mobile LPR units capture vehicle data, color, and type with a reported 98% accuracy rate. Using high-resolution sensors effective up to 120 feet, the system generates automated alerts in less than 10 seconds when a vehicle on a "hotlist" is detected.

"License plate recognition is one of the most effective tools to protect against repeat offenders and organized retail crime," said George Bentinck, chief product officer at LVT.

Bentinck said the partnership allows security teams to move from reactive monitoring to proactive interception.

The technology is intended to outperform standard CCTV in low-light and inclement weather. Beyond real-time alerts, the system provides predictive analytics and time-stamped documentation to assist in investigations.

According to John Nethery, chief executive officer at Insight LPR, the goal is to provide actionable evidence in a field where many crimes remain unsolved due to a lack of vehicle data.

"We built our platform to do one thing exceptionally well—capture vehicle evidence that helps turn unsolved cases into closed ones," Nethery said.

Data privacy remains a central component of the rollout. LPR data is confined to the individual customer’s environment, and users retain full control over the information. Customers have the option to authorize data sharing with third parties or law enforcement in accordance with CJIS-compliant security standards.

The LPR capabilities are scheduled to be generally available in May.

  • HD2055 Modular Barricade

    Delta Scientific’s electric HD2055 modular shallow foundation barricade is tested to ASTM M50/P1 with negative penetration from the vehicle upon impact. With a shallow foundation of only 24 inches, the HD2055 can be installed without worrying about buried power lines and other below grade obstructions. The modular make-up of the barrier also allows you to cover wider roadways by adding additional modules to the system. The HD2055 boasts an Emergency Fast Operation of 1.5 seconds giving the guard ample time to deploy under a high threat situation.

  • A8V MIND

    A8V MIND

    Hexagon’s Geosystems presents a portable version of its Accur8vision detection system. A rugged all-in-one solution, the A8V MIND (Mobile Intrusion Detection) is designed to provide flexible protection of critical outdoor infrastructure and objects. Hexagon’s Accur8vision is a volumetric detection system that employs LiDAR technology to safeguard entire areas. Whenever it detects movement in a specified zone, it automatically differentiates a threat from a nonthreat, and immediately notifies security staff if necessary. Person detection is carried out within a radius of 80 meters from this device. Connected remotely via a portable computer device, it enables remote surveillance and does not depend on security staff patrolling the area.

  • ResponderLink

    ResponderLink

    Shooter Detection Systems (SDS), an Alarm.com company and a global leader in gunshot detection solutions, has introduced ResponderLink, a groundbreaking new 911 notification service for gunshot events. ResponderLink completes the circle from detection to 911 notification to first responder awareness, giving law enforcement enhanced situational intelligence they urgently need to save lives. Integrating SDS’s proven gunshot detection system with Noonlight’s SendPolice platform, ResponderLink is the first solution to automatically deliver real-time gunshot detection data to 911 call centers and first responders. When shots are detected, the 911 dispatching center, also known as the Public Safety Answering Point or PSAP, is contacted based on the gunfire location, enabling faster initiation of life-saving emergency protocols.
