TOLLING SOLUTIONS
Lower capital and operational expenditures with Inex innovative tolling solutions
Teaming up with toll system integrators or working directly with end-users, INEX provides roadside solutions for a fraction of the cost of traditional tolling equipment. Recent Inex advancements in ALPR and Artificial Intelligence technologies make video-based management a preferred approach to identifying vehicles, as it does not require additional roadside devices. The INEX RoadView™ product suite requires neither pavement cutting or costly maintenance to deliver highly desirable cost savings to toll operators. The RoadView™ system provides all key transaction metrics: transaction generation, virtual toll zone triggering, AVI association, classification, axle counting, and license plate reading for video tolling or violation enforcement.
RoadView™ combines many toll zone functions into one side-fire video-based solution:
Highly accurate, automated axle counting
Highly accurate, automated vehicle classification
Highly accurate, automated virtual vehicle triggering (edge detection)
Highly accurate license plate reading (LPR)
RoadView™, or “lane in a box”, eliminates over-the-road civil engineering work, saving tens of thousands per lane as it requires nothing more than video camera sensors, in-pavement or out!
The INEX Toll Market offer includes:
Open Road Tolling (ORT) and conventional lane video-based solution
Hardware and software solutions for roadside, Operational Back Office (OBO), or enterprise/cloud – unique in the market
Dual-sensor design, maximizing contrast in all day/night conditions, which provides greater pursuable revenue to the end-user
Advanced illumination options – visible and infrared wavelengths to suit any end-user preferences, providing all the details needed for revenue collection
INEX owns, develops, and maintains all OCR/LPR and Artificial intelligence (AI) software for tolling markets – no third party
Production capability can handle any quantity – 10 to 1000 units

RoadView’s “lane in a box” solution
provides a comprehensive, cost competitive alternative to
traditional lane systems.
RoadView provides automatic axle counting, vehicle classification and lane zone tracking and triggering using LPR and RoadView cameras. You can use any configuration with RoadView – ORT, sidefire or mixed.
Video-based recognition eliminates the need for costly concrete cutting, in-ground loop maintenance and axle counting treadles. System can support the existing video cameras and add INEX cameras to provide a full solution for a toll zone VES (video enforcement system) infrastructure. You can get more out of your existing LPR and Video cameras installed for violation enforcement at your site. RoadView provides additional valuable ITS features, such as flow/speed, wrong-way driver, amber/silver alerts, vehicle height, vehicle residency and HOV enforcement (future).
RoadView Benefits
Comprehensive solution
No pavement cutting
More ITS features
Simplified installation and maintenance
Significant cost savings
Tolling ALPR Systems
Fixed ALPR Systems provide an array of cameras designed to fit the needs of many applications
ALL-IN-ONE ALPR CAMERA SYSTEM FOR FREE FLOW, ORT, AND ETS
All-in-one IZA800MIXED Camera System was designed specifically for Highways, Motorways, Free Flow and Open Road Tolling (ORT) applications. It combines two sensors (IR and color), a quad core processor, and ALPR software in a single unit. It features virtually non-existent data processing time, and maintains high accuracy in all lighting and weather conditions – at vehicle speeds of up to 120 miles per hour. The IZA800MIXED enables Tolling and ITS lane operators to enforce toll violations, monitor traffic and HOT/HOV lanes, and perform video tolling.
ALL-IN-ONE ALPR CAMERA SYSTEM FOR ETC AND ORT
All-in-one IZA800ORT Camera System was designed specifically for the ITS and Video-based Tolling markets. It combines two sensors (IR and color), a quad core processor, and ALPR software in a single unit.

ALPR Engine
The InSignia™ ALPR/ANPR Engine is the Automatic Number/License Plate Recognition software designed specifically for the Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), tolling and tolling violations marketplaces. InSignia™ can be used as a primary or secondary ALPR/ANPR engine, to provide both real-time plate recognition and backend batch ALPR processing.
Fast and Accurate
The InSignia™ Engine ALPR software solution uses license plate images to produce accurate ALPR computer-readable data. It utilizes INEX’s proprietary technology – a set of algorithms developed over 20 years. With a typical processing time of 200 ms, InSignia™ provides accurate ALPR results over a wide range of image qualities and pixel densities. InSignia™ has been integrated in a number of ITS backend systems, and has been deployed in major tolling installations.
Real-time or Pre-captured
The InSignia™ ALPR Engine reads license plate data from both real-time video streams and pre-captured still images with a very high accuracy. The software can be pre-configured for the optimal recognition of plates from specific states, regions, or countries.
Accommodates Wide Range of Plates
InSignia™ tolerates skewed and off-axis plate reads, various plate sizes, alphanumeric plate syntax, and designs. InSignia™ is easily configurable for the specific needs of ITS or tolling installations.
Outstanding Technology for High Accuracy
Due to its outstanding technology, the InSignia™ ALPR Engine delivers guaranteed performance, high-speed image processing, impressive recognition and low error rates, as demonstrated by the number of installations on many toll roads in the U.S. and across the globe.
