Field Of View
The camera field of view is the area that is visible in the video image.
When a moving vehicle is not in the field of view, it is important that the LPR camera is not aimed at anything that
could be interpreted as a series of alphanumeric characters such as a billboard or road sign. The LPR system
may recognize this as a license plate and generate inaccurate results.
