  • Page 13 The REG-X units have a horizontal field of view of about 6ft – 8ft (1.8m – 2.4m) at the specified capture range distance for the REG-X as shown on Figure 3 below. Since most vehicles have license plates mounted in the center of the front or back and the normal width for a standard traffic lane in a controlled parking or access lane is 8ft to 10ft (2.4m –...
  • Page 14 º The maximum angle of the camera to the car is 40 in combination of both horizontal and vertical angles. This limits the amount of skew of the letters on the number plate. If the letters are skewed too much the license plate will be difficult to recognize.
  • Page 15 Range Figure 5 - Maximum Horizontal Angle If the maximum range is exceeded the letters will become smaller and be more difficult to read. At the max range the width of the number plate covers approximately 12% of the width of the screen. Note: The Range is the distance from the camera to the license plate.
