MAV launches AiQ camera system

MAV Systems, an automated number plate recognition specialist, has developed a new camera that harnesses artificial intelligence (AI).

Building on existing range IQ cameras, the MAV AiQ offers a tailored approach to solution development to enhance data capture and analysis.

The MAV AiQ’s offer functionalities designed to address specific operational needs, including:

• Panoramic camera for broader situational awareness
• GhostPlate technology to improve identification of manipulated plates.
• Automated system diagnostics
• Pedestrian and traffic data capture
• Video-based analytics
• Enforcement-specific tools for detecting moving traffic violations
• Secure data handling powered by TPM hardware encryption
• A GPS module for geolocation tracking.
• ‘AI-Accurate’ enhancement that improves performance in all systems by up to 30%.

MAV AiQ users can select the features most relevant to their specific objectives, offering a customised approach for sectors such as law enforcement, traffic management, parking and urban infrastructure development.

For government and enforcement agencies, tools such as the panoramic context camera, precision GPS, and TPM chip deliver improved accuracy, security, and evidence reliability.

In traffic enforcement and intelligent transportation systems (ITS), enhanced survey functions, video analysis, and traffic violation detection provide operational insights and broader application possibilities.

Parking operators benefit from AI-driven optimisation, which improves the accuracy of plate recognition systems.

Andy Humphries, managing director of MAV Systems, said: “This latest evolution of our ANPR technology represents a major step forward for the industry. We’ve harnessed AI and combined cutting-edge data capture capabilities to deliver an unprecedented level of accuracy, providing businesses and organisations with deeper, real-time insights into both vehicle and pedestrian movement.

“By integrating advanced analytics and customisable features, we’re addressing the growing demand for smarter, more adaptive solutions across multiple sectors - whether it’s enhancing traffic flow management, improving security or refining retail footfall analysis.

“This isn’t just about better data; it’s about empowering our customers to make faster, more informed decisions that drive efficiency and safety. We’re proud to be leading the way in transforming how ANPR technology is used to shape smarter environments.”
