CatchCAM Modular: The World's Smallest ANPR Camera - Now Even Smaller
Based on the platform of the CatchCAM 2MP, the new CatchCAM Modular splits the cameras core components into modular units, drastically reducing the sensor footprint. This design allows for unprecedented flexibility in concealment, making it ideal for discreet surveillance applications.

Product description

CatchCAM Modular is a revolutionary new concept in ANPR/LPR technology, designed specifically for covert surveillance and special operations. By splitting the traditional camera system into three distinct modules — Processing, Infrared, and Sensor — it dramatically reduces the overall size and allows for highly flexible, discreet installations in even the most challenging environments.

  • The Processing Module handles all onboard intelligence and ANPR/LPR analytics, eliminating the need for external processing hardware and ensuring fast, accurate recognition.
  • The Infrared Module provides dedicated illumination, optimized for license plate visibility in low-light or no-light conditions, while remaining separate for adaptable placement and concealment.
  • Finally, the Sensor Module houses the high-quality 2.3MP imaging sensor, capturing crystal-clear images with precision alignment in compact enclosures. Together, these modular components create a highly customizable, intelligent system that redefines what’s possible in covert vehicle identification and monitoring.

When applying the modular concept for longer distances (20 meters of more), a second Infrared Module is recommended to ensure the license plates can still be read, even at larger distances.

There are various Sensor Modules available, as the concept is modular, you can use multiple sensor Sensor Modules for the same Processing Module (one at a time).
