About Carmen® Nano

Carmen® Nano is an advanced on-premise ANPR/LPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition/License Plate Recognition) software solution designed specifically for NVIDIA® Jetson™-based edge devices. Leveraging GPU-accelerated deep learning technology, Carmen Nano transforms standard IP cameras into intelligent license plate recognition systems capable of identifying over 38,000 plate types from more than 160 countries in real time. The solution operates entirely on-premise, eliminating cloud dependencies and ensuring data privacy and security. Carmen Nano delivers high-accuracy plate detection, character recognition, and vehicle classification without requiring expensive infrastructure upgrades. Ideal for law enforcement, parking management, toll collection, and border control applications, the software processes video streams at the edge, reducing latency and bandwidth requirements. AiDOOS enhances Carmen Nano deployment by providing flexible talent allocation for implementation and customization, governance frameworks for compliance validation, seamless integration with existing surveillance infrastructure, and scalable edge computing optimization across multiple Jetson devices.

Challenges It Solves

  • Standard IP cameras lack intelligent license plate recognition capabilities
  • Traditional ANPR systems require expensive specialized hardware and infrastructure
  • Cloud-based LPR solutions raise privacy and latency concerns for real-time applications
  • Integration with existing surveillance systems is complex and time-consuming
  • High operational costs associated with proprietary recognition hardware
