The Ubiquiti UniFi Protect AI LPR Camera (Model: UVC-AI-LPR) is an advanced optical recognition bullet camera purpose-built to deliver accurate vehicle license plate capture across entry gates, parking facilities, and high-speed roadway checkpoints. Built around a large 1/1.8" 8MP image sensor, the camera records 4K Ultra HD video at 30 frames per second, ensuring fine optical detail even in challenging low-light or high-glare environments.
Equipped with an integrated multi-TOPS AI edge processor, the camera automatically isolates, extracts, and logs license plate characters, vehicle makes, models, and colors without requiring an external processing server. Its optical assembly includes high-intensity specialized IR LEDs designed to overcome headlight glare and retroreflective plate reflections at distances up to 20 meters (65 ft). Housed in an IP65-rated weatherproof aluminum alloy casing, the camera features an integrated microphone and single-cable 802.3af PoE operation, managed centrally through the UniFi Protect software ecosystem.
Comprehensive Key Features:
Automated License Plate Recognition (LPR): Dedicated AI edge engine for real-time plate OCR logging on vehicles traveling up to 100 km/h (62 mph).
4K Ultra HD Sensor: 1/1.8" 8MP CMOS image sensor capturing 3840 x 2160 resolution video at 30 FPS with High Dynamic Range (HDR).
Anti-Glare High-Power IR Illumination: Specialized long-range infrared matrix designed to neutralize headlight glare and capture reflective license plates in total darkness.
Vehicle Attribute Analytics: Identifies and indexes vehicle type, color, and motion direction in addition to license plate numbers.
IP65 Weatherproof Housing: Durable aluminum alloy enclosure engineered for extreme outdoor temperatures and ambient weather exposure.
Single-Cable PoE Integration: Powered via standard 802.3af PoE over a single Gigabit RJ45 Ethernet link.
