SCHAUMBURG, Ill.—Systems integrator Convergint Technologies will begin selling PlateSmart license plate recognition (LPR) technology, PlateSmart announced Sept. 8.
PlateSmart, based in Oldsmar, Fla., bills itself as the first “software-only license plate recognition solution."
“Our clients continue to demand practical solutions that can help them improve the overall safety and security of their facilities and employees,” said Tony Varco, vice president of marketing and security at Convergint in a prepared statement. “They also look to Convergint to provide cost effective and proactive solutions that can turn real-time big data into immediate actionable intelligence.
