plate recognition for moving cars

[belmont]

any idea how to make it work with moving cars?
the object detector of Frigate detects the car earlier than the license plate would be clearly visible.
I use the Frigate object detector as binary sensor to trigger the license plate recognizer.
I feed the frigate camera to the plate recognizer but it never picks a photo that is close enough to recognize the number plate.

Basically I am trying to use 2 object detector, one for recognizing cars (done by Frigate) and another to recognize the number plate (using this)

I use "only" full HD resolution on my Hikvision cameras and this is good enough to read out license plates for my human eyes. I know about LPR cameras but they are expensive. They starts from 700USD. I guess these cams have a local object detector which triggers on car and then the camera zoom on the license plate object.

Ever get an answer to this?

The HD image is possibly downsized by plate recognizer. To prevent this the integration would need to be updated to slice the image and process the slices (at HD). I expect the $700 cameras are capturing at high FPS to minimise motion blur

Somehow we need to get frigate to pass a clean image to plate recogniser....

I'm not familiar with the processing that frigate does, but assume it is documented somewhere
