The Plate Hunter Mobile License Plate Camera

The most advanced mobile license plate reader available today

When officers are on patrol, information needs to move as fast as they do. Leonardo’s ELSAG® Mobile License Plate Recognition (LPR) systems automatically capture, process, and analyze license plate data in real time, turning everyday patrol vehicles into reliable sources of investigative intelligence.

Each mobile unit is powered by Leonardo’s advanced Optical Character Recognition (OCR) engine, enhanced through machine learning models trained on millions of real-world images. This technology reads plates with exceptional accuracy, even in low light, at high speeds, when plates are obscurred or in challenging weather conditions.

What sets ELSAG Mobile LPR apart is its ability to transform each scan into actionable data. Officers receive instant alerts on vehicles of interest, gain visibility into movement patterns, and collect valuable evidence that supports faster, more confident decisions in the field.

Leonardo’s mobile systems deliver clarity when it matters most—helping agencies locate suspect vehicles, close cases faster, and protect the communities they serve.

Key Features:

High-Accuracy OCR Powered by Machine Learning
Each ELSAG Mobile LPR camera is driven by a neural network-based OCR engine that continually learns from new plate images. This allows it to read U.S. and international license plates with outstanding precision, even when plates are dirty, angled, or partially obstructed.

Real-Time Alerts and Data Sharing
Captured plate data is instantly checked against hotlists for stolen vehicles, wanted persons, or active investigations. Alerts appear within seconds, giving officers the information they need to act quickly and confidently.

Flexible Deployment Options
ELSAG Mobile systems can be mounted on patrol cars, unmarked vehicles, or temporary enforcement setups. Each configuration is designed for durability, reliability, and consistent performance in motion or at rest.

Secure, Connected Intelligence
Every plate read, hit, and alert is securely transmitted to the ELSAG Enterprise Operations Center (EOC), Leonardo’s centralized data and management platform. Agencies can analyze patterns, share intelligence across departments, and generate reports that support investigations and strategic planning.

Seamless Integration with Existing Systems
ELSAG Mobile integrates smoothly with CAD, RMS, and other law enforcement databases. This ensures all vehicle intelligence contributes directly to your broader investigative and operational picture.

Find Vehicles and Suspects Faster
Real-time alerts help patrol officers intercept vehicles of interest immediately, reducing response time and supporting proactive enforcement.

Enhance Investigations
Each read adds to a growing pool of valuable data. Investigators can search historical records to connect vehicles, suspects, and locations across multiple cases.

Increase Officer Awareness and Safety
Automated recognition allows officers to stay focused on their surroundings while the system works in the background, delivering critical information when it counts.

Strengthen Interagency Collaboration
The option of data sharing through the EOC platform enables multiple agencies to coordinate efforts, identify trends, and build stronger regional intelligence networks.

Improve Public Safety Outcomes
With faster identification, better data accuracy, and broader visibility, agencies can prevent more crimes, recover stolen property, and protect the public more effectively.
