San Mateo, CA., Feb. 15, 2023 — Verkada, leader in cloud-managed enterprise building security and management, today announced a range of updates that expand the reach of the Verkada platform.
"Each of our products is intuitive and powerful in its own right – but connected together on the Command platform, they provide best-in-class capabilities to protect people and places," said Brandon Davito, VP of Product. "All of the new products and features we're introducing today – from Verkada Intercom and our new talkdown speaker to our enhanced Command interface – work together to empower our customers to not only keep their organizations safer, but also to transform the way they operate."
One unique aspect of the next generation bullet cameras is the improved LPR algorithm which offers drastically more accurate character detection. The Ambarella CV22 and CV25 chipsets in the CB52-TE and CB62-TE bullet cameras increase the speed and accuracy of processing needed to power the upgraded license plate algorithm at the edge.
The bullet cameras are now able to capture license plates for vehicles traveling at speeds up to 80mph / 128kph, a significant improvement from the 25 mph / 40kph capability of our previous generation. For the first time, we are also able to support LPR coverage across up to three lanes, simplifying installations for our customers and expanding the results that can be gathered by a single camera.
