A few more ramblings of mine of the reason for and uses of license plate recognition software. Some of the following might be true.

As terrorists might be looking for soft targets, The Villages could check the ins and outs of vehicles to match against terror lists. If a certain number of visits are reached, then the FBI would be alerted about a potential attack somewhere in The Villages.

As TV is trying to reduce or eliminate solicitors, the software could recognize these people and note the frequency and location of their visits. Letters could then be sent asking them to visit another place.

A list could be compiled on local people living close to the Villages who visit TV on a regular basis. Questions could then be asked as to the nature of these visits.

I still would like to have it used to open the gates.

As cities/communities become smart cities, data collection and then data mining will become a useful tool within reason to enhance the good life for citizens within those locations. I am becoming more and more interested in how this software will be used in TV to better this already fantastic place.

My wife says that I chuckle and laugh a lot more here than back in Ohio! It’s a happy place and I want it to remain so.
