# Additional ALPR and Vehicle Recognition Products

Rekor offers a suite of Automatic License Plate and Vehicle Recognition solutions. The primary software library is written in C++ with bindings in C#, Java, Node.js, and Python. The library analyzes images and video streams to identify license plates and vehicles. Data output is a list of vehicle characteristics and the text representation of any license plate characters detected.

The software can be used in many different ways. For example, with Rekor's Automatic License Plate Recognition solutions, you can:

1. Recognize license plates and vehicles from live camera streams. The results are [browsable, searchable, and can trigger alerts](/scout/web-server/overview.md). The data repository can be accessed in the [cloud](/scout/web-server/cloud.md) or stored entirely [on-premises](/scout/web-server/self-hosted.md).
2. Recognize license plates and vehicles from live camera streams and send the results to your application using [Rekor Scout's REST API](/scout/web-server/rest-api.md).
3. Analyze still images for license plates and vehicle information such as make, model, and color using the [Rekor CarCheck® API](/developers/carcheck/rekor-carcheck-r-overview.md).
4. Integrate license plate and vehicle recognition into your application directly in code (C/C++, C#, VB.NET, Java, Python, Node.js) using our [Vehicle Recognition SDK](/developers/vehicle-recognition-sdk/vehicle-recognition-sdk-overview.md).

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.rekor.ai/scout/getting-started/additional-alpr-and-vehicle-recognition-products.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
