u Night Capture Imaging System ensures 24/7
performance and eliminates headlight glare
The DINION capture 5000 is a specialty camera
designed to capture consistent, high-quality images of
vehicle license plates. Available in IP and analog
versions, it is ideal for monitoring parking lots, public
areas, and for controlling vehicle access.
The DINION capture 5000 overcomes the problems
encountered when using conventional surveillance
cameras in vehicle identification and automatic license
plate recognition applications. The Night Capture
Imaging System delivers a burst of infrared
illumination and simultaneously filters out visible light
to ensure clear license plate images in complete
darkness while eliminating the negative effects of
headlight glare.
Advanced Ambient Compensation minimizes plate
overexposure from sunlight for more accurate
automatic license plate recognition. Finally, adjustable
imaging modes allow for fine-tuning the imager for
specific regions or license plate recognition
algorithms.
System overview
The DINION capture 5000 is available with a high
performance analog camera or with a progressive scan
CCD IP camera. Both models use high intensity short
pulse width IR illumination to attain a crystal clear

plate image while minimizing the effects of ambient
light. Automatic Mode Switching can be used to
overcome scenarios where the plate image may
become overexposed, such as when the sun is behind
the camera.
With an operational range of up to 28 m (92 ft), the
DINION capture 5000 delivers high contrast number
plate images across the complete spectrum of ambient
lighting conditions, from total darkness to direct glare
from sunlight and vehicle headlights. The camera can
capture clear plate images from vehicles moving at
speeds of up to 225 km/h (140 mph) enabling
effective capture on motorways, highways and in other
high speed applications.
The DINION capture 5000 easily integrates with the
Bosch Divar 700 Digital Video Recorder, the Bosch
Video Management System, and with the Bosch Video
client. The imager is also specifically designed to work
with third-party ANPR software.
Analog Cameras
The DINION capture 5000 features a 1/3-inch, wide
dynamic range CCD sensor and incorporates advanced
(20-bit) digital signal processing for outstanding
picture performance.

The highly accurate 20-bit digital signal is
automatically processed to reveal every detail of the
image in both the high- and low-light areas of the
scene simultaneously.
IP Cameras
The DINION capture 5000 IP features a CCD with
progressive scan technology. These models can quadstream video simultaneously — on two H.264 streams,
an I-frame recording stream, and an M-JPEG stream.
Equipped with a 20-bit DSP the signal is automatically
processed to reveal every detail of the image in both
the high- and low-light areas of the scene
simultaneously.
The DINION capture 5000 IP uses H.264 (Main Profile)
compression, bandwidth throttling, and multicasting
capabilities to manage bandwidth and storage
requirements efficiently, while delivering high image
quality and resolution.
Three power options, PoE+ (Power-over-Ethernet+),
11–30 VDC, and 24 VAC are available. Using PoE+
makes installation easier and more cost-effective, as
cameras do not require a local power source. To
increase system reliability, the camera can be
simultaneously connected to both PoE+ and 11–30
VDC/24 VAC supplies.
The camera conforms to the ONVIF (Open Network
Video Interface Forum) specification which guarantees
interoperability between network video products
regardless of manufacturer. ONVIF conformant devices
are able to exchange live video, audio, metadata and
control information. They are automatically discovered
and connected to network applications such as video
management systems.
Functions
Night Capture Imaging System
Capturing usable images of vehicle license plates is
one of the most challenging problems in video
surveillance, particularly at night. Typically there is not
enough light on scene to properly expose the plate
image and vehicle headlights only reduce the exposure
making the plate image even dimmer. The DINION
capture 5000 overcomes these problems by using the
Night Capture Imaging System.
The Night Capture Imaging system illuminates a
license plate with a burst of infrared light and
simultaneously filters out visible light ensuring clear
license plate images 24-hours a day.
Advanced Ambient Compensation
The DINION capture 5000 uses Advanced Ambient
Compensation to decrease overexposure, unreadable
plate images, and false ALPR readings. Advanced
Ambient Compensation combines high-intensity pulsed
infrared illumination, and ultra-fast shutter, and
automatic mode switching to deliver a clear,
consistent license plate image, day or night.
