  • Patent number: 9514374
    Abstract: A system and method for redaction of faces in a windshield within an image that includes detecting a windshield within the captured image via a selected detection process, extracting a windshield region from the detected windshield within the image, and selectively applying an obscuration process to at least a portion of the extracted windshield region. A redacted image is then generated obscuring the face or faces in the windshield using the selectively applied obscuration process.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9224058
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and processor-readable media for data augmentation utilized in an automatic license plate recognition engine. A machine-readable code can be associated with an automatic license plate recognition engine. The machine-readable code can be configured to define parameters that drive processing within the automatic license plate recognition engine to produce recognition results thereof and enhance a machine readability of a license plate recognized and analyzed via the automatic license plate recognition engine.

  • Patent number: 8760317
    Abstract: An upstream vehicle detection system captures images of a vehicle as it travels through a high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lane or high occupancy vehicle tolling (HOT) station and generates an hypothesis as to whether the vehicle is complying with HOV or HOT rules based on image analysis. A database of historical information about various vehicles' compliance with HOV or HOT rules is consulted to determine whether the vehicle has previously been identified as a potential violator and pulled over by law enforcement as a result. If the vehicle was previously pulled over by law enforcement and determined to be complying with HOV or HOT rules (a false positive), then the violation hypothesis may be weighted in favor of not pulling the vehicle over.
