Quick answer
ANPR cameras range from compact access cameras that read plates at a gate or barrier, to complete kits with a barrier and controller, to long-range cameras for roads and multi-lane entrances, and 4G or solar units for sites without power or network. Most estates and offices need access ANPR at each lane.
