UHF vs. License Plate Recognition: Why UHF is the Smarter Choice

When it comes to controlling vehicle access in parking facilities or secured sites, two contenders often stand out: UHF and License Plate Recognition (LPR).

While both have their uses, UHF clearly outperforms LPR in terms of reliability, versatility, and security, especially in real-world conditions.

1. Unmatched reliability in All Conditions

LPR relies on cameras and visible plates , easily affected by dirt, weather, glare, or plate variations.UHF? It reads a tag placed inside or on the vehicle, unaffected by environmental factors.Stable and accurate identification, every time.

2. Works with all vehicles

LPR only sees what’s on the plate. No plate = no access.UHF works with all types: cars, trucks, motorcycles, forklifts, even trailers.

One solution, zero restrictions.

3. Faster flow, no stop needed

UHF readers detect vehicles on the move — up to 15 meters (49 feet) away. No need to pause or wait.Smoother entries, fewer traffic jams.

4. Stronger Security

License plates can be copied or spoofed.UHF can use encrypted & signed credentials, protecting your system from cloning or hacking. Security built-in, not bolted on. 

The Verdict? UHF Wins.

✔ Better in harsh conditions

✔ Works with all vehicles

✔ Faster entry and exit

✔ More secure credentials

Whether you're managing residential access, logistics hubs, or industrial sites, UHF offers a smarter, future-ready approach to vehicle access control.
