You *are* making this up, right? Please say you did.
It's possible today, and probably affordable. If not, it will be in 1-2 years,
I know that there are video cameras on the freeway. I also know that reading license plate must be trivial, since I saw such systems abroad years ago. In fact, in Europe, where cameras are ubiquitous in inner cities, face recognition is the latest fad. -- Lucky Green <mailto:shamrock@netcom.com> PGP encrypted mail preferred.
