Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) System Market to Reach $4.64 Billion by 2030
Pune, India, Nov. 27, 2023 -- The global automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system market is expected to reach $4.64 billion by 2030, up from $2.51 billion in 2022, at a CAGR of 7.6%. The market is being driven by the increasing adoption of ANPR technology in smart parking, toll collection, and law enforcement applications.
Key Market Drivers
Smart Parking: ANPR technology is being used to develop smart parking systems that can automatically detect and track vehicles in parking lots. This can help to improve parking management, reduce congestion, and increase revenue for parking operators.
Toll Collection: ANPR technology is being used to automate toll collection, which can help to reduce traffic congestion and improve toll collection efficiency.
Law Enforcement: ANPR technology is being used by law enforcement agencies to identify and track vehicles of interest. This can help to improve public safety and reduce crime.
Regional Market Trends
Asia Pacific: Asia Pacific is expected to be the fastest-growing regional market for ANPR systems over the forecast period. This is due to the rapid urbanization and increasing adoption of smart city initiatives in the region.
North America: North America is expected to be the second-largest regional market for ANPR systems. The market is being driven by the increasing demand for ANPR technology from law enforcement agencies and transportation departments.
Europe: Europe is expected to be the third-largest regional market for ANPR systems. The market is being driven by the growing adoption of ANPR technology in smart cities and the increasing use of ANPR technology for traffic enforcement.
Competitive Landscape
The ANPR system market is fragmented, with a number of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) competing with large multinational corporations. Some of the leading players in the market include Axis Communications, Hikvision, Dahua Technology, Hanwha Group, and Siemens.
Recent Industry Developments
In May 2023, Hanwha Vision launched an AI-enabled high-speed ANPR camera for license plate detection applications. The camera can identify number plates and vehicles even when they are moving at speeds of up to 200 km/h.
In April 2023, Axis Communications announced that it had partnered with Motorola Solutions to develop a new ANPR solution for law enforcement applications. The solution combines Axis's ANPR cameras with Motorola's software to provide real-time vehicle identification and tracking.
The future of the ANPR system market is bright. The increasing adoption of ANPR technology in smart cities, law enforcement, and transportation is expected to drive significant market growth over the next few years.
How popular any name or initial it contains is: You are more likely to get good money for a registration plate that spells out a name like 5UE than you are with a more unusual name, simply because there is more demand for Sue (or Dave or Mel) than there would be for Hector, Primrose or Zebedee
How valuable the letters and numbers the plate contains are: in terms of numbers, lower numbers with fewer digits tend to be the most valuable when reselling personalised number plates, making BOB 1 more valuable than BOB 379. Sequential numbers (123, 456 etc.) and repeated numbers (444, 88) are more popular than random combinations, and special occasion numbers like 18 and 21 can also boost a number plate’s value a little. In terms of the letters in a number plate, the likelihood of a series of letters being a name or a person’s initials increases the value of the plate, too.
