GithubIn modern smart communities and commercial buildings, traditional garage access control systems often rely on card swiping or manual verification, which not only reduces efficiency but also easily leads to congestion during peak hours and management loopholes.
To achieve intelligent vehicle access and seamless passage, smart access control manufacturers have integrated SingTown's OpenMV intelligent camera image recognition technology. By leveraging AI machine vision and computer vision algorithms, this system enables automatic license plate detection, recognition, and access control, creating an efficient and stable smart garage access control system.

The intelligent access control manufacturer adopted SingTown's OpenMV smart camera to build an AI machine vision recognition technology-based automatic license plate recognition system for garages.
The system utilises an OpenMV intelligent camera installed at the garage entrance to capture vehicle images in real time. It employs image recognition algorithms to detect the licence plate area, segment and recognise characters, and compares the information with registered vehicle data in the database to achieve automatic access control and logging.
This system employs embedded vision + edge-deployed edge detection + deep learning character recognition models + OCR algorithms, capable of maintaining recognition accuracy exceeding 98% in complex environments such as lighting variations, vehicle speed fluctuations, and rainy or foggy weather conditions.
Leveraging SingTown Technology's OpenMV edge-side AI computing capabilities, all recognition and comparison processes can be completed locally on the device without requiring cloud server support. The single recognition response time is as low as 100 milliseconds, truly achieving low latency and seamless passage. Additionally, the camera features automatic exposure, white balance, and dynamic range optimization functions, ensuring stable and reliable license plate recognition even in nighttime or backlit scenarios.
Leveraging SingTown's integrated software and hardware platform, this system can swiftly interface with garage barriers, access control controllers, and property management systems, enabling automatic vehicle entry and exit recognition, synchronized fee collection, and anomaly alerts.
Through SingTown Technology's OpenMV intelligent camera edge AI image recognition technology, smart access control manufacturers have achieved a fully automated, seamless intelligent upgrade from traditional access control to AI visual license plate recognition access control. This significantly enhances management efficiency and security, making parking lot and garage management more efficient, secure, and convenient.
