CarPlay helps Australian police scan license plates automatically
Police in Australia are expanding their usage of CarPlay on the roads, with the in-car infotainment software now used to display information based on surrounding drivers' license plates.
"Real-time ANPR data helps to ensure that front-line officers are more aware of potential risks and able to make better decisions," said Superintendent Dean Snashall, Technology Portfolio, WA Police Force.
