Built for moving vehicles

High shutter speed and IR illumination freeze motion so plates stay readable even on cars pulling in at speed — something ordinary cameras can't do.

Readable in total darkness

Dedicated infrared and starlight sensors capture plate text under headlights and pitch-black conditions, not just during the day.

Placement is everything. Vetted pros mount at the right height, angle, and distance for your driveway so plates land in frame every time.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Can a home security camera actually read license plates at night?

Yes — purpose-built license plate recognition (LPR) cameras use a fast shutter and built-in infrared to freeze motion and capture readable plates even in total darkness. The key is the right camera, mounted at the correct height and angle for your driveway. Our vetted installers design the placement around your specific sightlines.

How much does a license plate camera for a home driveway cost?

A single dedicated LPR camera with professional installation typically runs in the mid-hundreds to low-thousands depending on the camera model, mounting, and whether you add an NVR for storage. Submit a free request to get exact quotes from local pros — there's no obligation.

What's the difference between a regular camera and an LPR camera?

Standard cameras blur fast-moving objects and wash out plates under headlights. LPR cameras use a high shutter speed, narrow IR beam, and often a polarizing filter to capture crisp plate text on moving vehicles day or night. They're tuned specifically for that one job.

Can I view captured plates from my phone?

Most modern LPR systems support remote viewing and can flag or log plate captures. Your matched installer can recommend a system with the app and storage (local NVR or cloud) that fits how you want to use it.
