PRESS RELEASE ~ CitySync ALPR System makes 8 arrests on day one with SOS Database Sept 09

CitySync Technologies have been working very closely with ‘IDOT’, the Illinois Department of Transportation, to provide additional hotlist database information for Police Departments.

Last week the Secretary of State (SOS) has provided two CitySync customers with a SOS Test database before releasing it to the rest of the world. The first Illinois department to try out the database was MEATTF, a stolen vehicle task force part of ISP District #11.

Director Gary Brewer of MEATTF has just informed CitySync that the SOS data went live last Wednesday morning and by Wednesday afternoon his team had pulled over and arrested 8 vehicles for Revoked / Suspended driver’s licenses!

CitySync’s JetMobile ALPR Software and JellyBean InfraRed Camera were connected to the Police Toughbook computer.  

The CitySync System can recognize, check and then store thousands of license plates per hour along with GPS co-ordinates and is extremely user friendly.   It can be operated using a touch screen with a few simple button pushes.
