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. Utilising AI machine vision and computer vision algorithms, this system enables automatic vehicle license plate detection, recognition, and access control, creating an efficient and stable intelligent garage access control system.

The intelligent access control manufacturer adopted SingTown's OpenMV smart camera to construct an AI machine vision recognition technology-based automatic vehicle 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 licence plate regions, segment and recognise characters, and compares the data with registered vehicle information in the database to achieve automatic access control and logging.
This system employs embedded vision, edge-deployed edge detection, deep learning character recognition models, and OCR algorithms. It maintains a 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 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 access. Additionally, the camera features automatic exposure, white balance, and dynamic range optimisation, ensuring stable and reliable license plate recognition even in nighttime or backlit scenarios.
Leveraging SingTown Technology'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, coordinated 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 upgrade from traditional access control to AI visual license plate recognition access control, significantly enhancing management efficiency and security, making parking lot and garage management more efficient, secure, and convenient.
