by Brianna Crandall — April 29, 2015—Exacq Technologies, part of the Security Products business unit of Tyco, recently announced an integration with Mango + Mate Viper automated license plate recognition (ALPR).
The combination of exacqVision video management system (VMS) software and Viper ALPR gives facilities managers and security managers with oversight of parking facilities a unified solution within one interface.

The Viper ALPR solution is a standalone all-in-one plug-n-play system that automatically detects vehicle license plates for fixed installations up to the speed of 30 mph. The Viper ALPR system analyzes the video input, captures vehicle license plates, and sends results to the hosted server.
Within the exacqVision / Viper ALPR integration, users can view video associated with detected license plate readings. Users can also create alarms that will be triggered if certain license plate numbers pass through an area, sending a notification through exacqVision.
Additionally, the integration allows users to search for a partial license plate number to find the video associated with it. The plate information is then displayed in the exacqVision client software and includes the following data:
- License plate number
- Timestamp of when the license plate was captured
- Camera name
This integration requires exacqVision version 6.4 or later, an exacqVision Professional or Enterprise license, Mango + Mate Viper ALPR software, and an ALPR camera device.
