Thanks Derek,
the right test at the right time - at least for me. I personally saw Messoa a couple of times used in LPC/LPR applications. Looks like, there is a good reason for it.

Apr 02, 2015This is my take on this: Just about any camera can capture license plates in daylight under good lighting conditions and act as it's own overview camera. So then only benefit this could offer is "what can it do at night?" As the tests show, it does do a good job of capturing tags at night. But not enough to act as an overview camera, too.
So the only real standout to me in this is the high pixel count which would allow for great distances or covering more lanes than most other tag cameras. And for it's price, and that it's actually IP and POE powered (without need of an injector), I think it's pretty darn good.
