## Frequently Asked Questions (condensed)

**What is ALPR+?** ALPR (Automated License Plate Recognition) is the process of finding and capturing license plate information in video or still images. Sighthound ALPR+ returns plate read + MMCG + plate region.

**Who uses ALPR+?** Primarily businesses — parking operators, LE, toll authorities, access control, consumer safety, insurance.

**Where can ALPR+ run?** Linux (preferred), Windows, embedded. Hardware-agnostic (GPU, CPU, edge, cloud).

**What accuracy does ALPR+ achieve?** >90% in almost all real-world scenarios. Accuracy depends on plate size, angle, lighting, occlusion. Rule of thumb: if a human can read the plate in the frame, ALPR+ can too.

**Can Redactor run offline?** Yes. Redactor runs fully offline and supports air-gapped deployment. Internet access is not required for processing — viable for CJIS, HIPAA, and classified environments.

**What OS does Redactor need?** Windows, Linux, or Docker. Minimum: Windows 10+, 4-core Intel i7/i9 (8th gen+) or AMD equivalent, 16 GB RAM, SSD, NVIDIA GPU with 4 GB+ VRAM (Compute Capability 5.0+).

**Can Sighthound Cameras be mounted outdoors?** Yes. IP67-rated, heat-resistant, designed for parking lots, traffic poles, and building entries. Powered via PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at).

**Does Sighthound Compute Node work with existing cameras?** Yes. Compute Node ingests RTSP streams from existing network cameras and runs Sighthound's CV stack on top, adding AI to deployed non-smart cameras.

**Is there a free trial?** Redactor has a 24-hour free trial with no credit card required at https://www.redactor.com/free-trial. ALPR+ and Compute trials are arranged via sales.
