Can the barrier be opened by reading the number plate?
Yes, and in company car parks it works well because the driver does not have to wind the window down or look for anything. What has to be clear is that the number plate identifies the car and not the person inside it.
For it to read properly you need specific things: a camera dedicated to that with its own infrared lighting, the angle and distance worked out for that lane, one lane per camera, and a written decision on the odd cases — foreign plates, dirty or bent plates, motorcycles with no front plate, trailers, courtesy cars. And always a second way in when the read fails: intercom to the control room, long-range card or fob.
There is a data protection side worth resolving in the project: a number plate linked to a person is personal data. That means you have to inform people, set how long the movement is kept and not reuse those records for anything other than what was stated, such as checking what time each person arrives.

A written answer is enough to decide whether it interests you. To know whether it works at your site you have to see it on a real scene, with the image as it is and, on top of it, what the system understands from it. That is on the IRIS Neural website, which is the group's product.
