You can retrieve images with FOIA. You’re not going to see good images with faces.

Some research done by others has uncovered a good bit of how they’re designed to function. They’re aimed to get a good look at plates.

The same cameras can be sold for purely video functionality. Those would be aimed differently. Like at the entrance to a store, etc. Whatever the customer wanted.

This is different, what would be the purpose of having two falcons on one pole. One pointed at the driver, one at the license plate?

They are all over the interstate in my area now. It's to see who's driving obviously, no? These cameras are top of the line with great resolution.

The smaller cameras can serve two product lines. Not at the same time though. One is live video, one is alpr. You will see what looks like falcons aimed at areas with no cars for this reason. Btw, all of this is on their website
