 Written by [Scott Johnson](https://www.baycominc.com/blog/author/scott-johnson) | August 11, 2025

Modern public safety agencies and municipalities across Wisconsin, Illinois, and Minnesota are facing increasing demands for real-time intelligence, rapid response, and smarter resource deployment. At BAYCOM, we understand that your technology must not only work — it must work **precisely when and where you need it**. Learn more about our full LPR offering on our [Automated License Plate Recognition (ALPR) solutions page](https://www.baycominc.com/alpr/).

## Smarter Investigations with VehicleManager

- **Focus Plate Enhancements:** Review up to 250 vehicle hits before and after a detection to gain timeline insights.
- **Batch Plate Search:** Save time by entering multiple plate numbers at once with improved image previews.
- **Updated Map View:** Visualize system coverage and status with new density layers and legend icons.
- **Offline Reporting:** Easily generate large reports for complex investigations.

## Longer-Running, More Secure LPR Cameras

- **Eco Mode:** Radar-informed smart capture conserves energy on solar-powered systems.
- **Dual Battery Support:** Double your uptime with two 18Ah batteries for field deployments.
- **CJIS-Compliant Authentication:** Built-in security with MFA and device credentialing.
