Its 6056 scans per device on average per day. Or roughly 4.2 scans per minute per camera.
Imagining a device hooked up to the on-ramp/off-ramp of the highway, and I imagine a camera could hit this easily.
Definitely seems accurate enough for a news headline.
It’s the back-end bit of “cities pushing back” that triggers my skepticism impulse. These devices are everywhere precisely because municipal leadership is so easily bought off (or outright installed) by the surveillance industry.
Because im a nerd and like doing math too.
20,000,000,000 / 30 days in a month Divided by the 110,077 mapped alprs (theres definitely more than that)
Its 6056 scans per device on average per day. Or roughly 4.2 scans per minute per camera.
Keeping in mind theres definitely more cameras than that so the ratio is even more favorable. Definitely seems accurate enough for a news headline.
Sure, but that’s still the number of scans, not the number of vehicles.
“Scanning 20 billion vehicles a month” sounds like they scanned vehicles 20 billion times to meeee. Aint english grand friend.
