Solution Architecture

Each smart Axis camera with CAMMRA capturesthe vehicle license plates and type (Truck) at each of the Customs Clearance Areas and Port.

Traffic data is sent via UTMC protocol to a local, peer-to-peer connected, ComsHub outstation for vehicle verification and inclusion on the daily whitelist. Trucks arriving at the Customs Clearance Areas trigger the system to print a unique ticket, featuring the truck’s VRN, and transmits the updated whitelist to the Port entry point.

Recognized data from CAMMRA at the Port entry point is sent via the UTMC protocol to its local ComsHub, which controls all truck-flow at that site. If the truck VRN is not matched on the daily whitelist, the officers see & hear an audio / visual alert & get a signal on their iPads / smartphones to speak to the driver approaching the Port.
