Computerized Valet Parking Technology:

As the inventors of today’s popular high tech automated Valet Parking Systems(U.S. Patent Issue #6630893, #5710557) we have built a full featured product line to suit every industry sector with a custom fit. Self-serve Request Kiosks allow departing customers to initiate their vehicle retrieval simply by scanning their bar coded valet parking ticket at the built-in reader. Customers may wait inside a climate controlled space in view of the staging area until their vehicle is retrieved. One of our most popular system modules is the HDIP Digital Camera Interface. It provides the comfort of knowing whether or not an alleged damage liability was incurred while the vehicle was in your care. No more guess work, irate customers and time consuming case building. Here, a picture is worth a thousand words. Wireless Mobile Technology has become a popular tool and can be quite effective in the right application. Hardware options range from a compact blue-tooth wireless scanner designed primarily to ‘time-stamp’ newly issued tickets in the lane, to full featured mobile PPT’s with built-in license plate recognition. IValetParc.net is a completely scalable open architecture application built on the latest .NET 3.5 platform, utilizing Microsoft’s graphically rich Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) front end and a robust SQL Server Database backend. Its main menu is an intuitive user-friendly touch-screen interface providing quick access to all pertinent functions. Our user-friendly touch-screen Point of Sale and Dispatch Terminals with tight revenue controls and powerful programming capabilities are available in several models. The point of sale systems are also equipped with dispatch terminal software for ultimate flexibility. Bar-coded tickets, key-storage boxes with electronic key-pad locks, barrier gates, bumper posts, concrete column pads, parking signs, clearance bars, traffic cones … high-end quality products for the customer with higher expectations.

License Plate Recognition:

The world has changed. The need to know more about who is visiting your domain has grown exponentially over the past few years. Controlling your entry points with high speed license plate recognition technology has become a very effective way to ensure you are not caught off guard. License plates are captured at up to 75mph and instantly compared against your personalized database, allowing you to create a variety of alerts when a plate is matched. Casino Resorts are among the leading industries capitalizing on this powerful technology. A VIP entering the property may ‘automagically’ trigger a text message to alert the casino host. An employee pulling into the wrong parking area may be called in for a reminder and a stolen vehicle match against the NCIC  can dispatch the police or alert security to greet the suspect in the parking lot. Better Service, increased Security, controlled Perimeter Access – without the extra staff. License Plate Recognition has weaved its powerful optical character recognition techology into a wide range of applications, including Perimeter Access Security, Gated Communities, Parking Revenue Control, Fleet Vehicle Management and several other niche markets. CheckPointLPR’s versatile software platform allows the technolgy to be customized for a variety of applications, in all cases automating labor intensive processess, increasing the level of security and providing smart access. CheckPointLPR™ is an image-processing application used to identify vehicles by their license plates. This exciting technology has been chosen by some of the best-in-class companies in the world for use in various security, revenue protection, and traffic-based applications. As vehicles pass through an LPR field of view, a camera captures the license plate and transforms the image into an alpha-numeric character string utilizing its optical character recognition (OCR) algorithm. CheckPointLPR.net is a completely scalable open architecture application built on the latest .NET 3.5 platform, utilizing Microsoft’s graphically rich Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) front end and a robust SQL Server Database backend. The Microsoft .NET Framework is a key Microsoft offering intended to be used by most new applications created for the Windows Platform. As a part of being a seamlessly integrated technology solutions provider, Service Tracking Systems (STS) offers a variety of intelligent hardware choices to manage whatever traffic environment you operate in. Our hardware selections are state of the art technology solutions, the latest and greatest if you will. From infra-red to high definition, stationary to mobile solutions – if it’s available, chances are we have already integrated it.

Access Control:

In an effort to bring some excitement, better service and new features to an industry that has been around for a long time but accomplished little in retiring the clunky out-dated box designs, we have created a product line that is not only sleek and attractive, but extremely flexible and high tech. Ticket dispensing can be enhanced with license plate recognition, generating a plate match for best revenue control. In addition to a picture of the vehicle, a live video intercom allows you to monitor the lane real-time and capture a driver image which can greatly assist in audits and stolen vehicle incidents. Instead of just printing and cashing out tickets, you are building a meaningful and valuable customer database – without any extra effort. Why would you want any less than knowing who frequents your million dollar facility ? Hotel Management System Interfaces such as Opera, Galaxy & and LMS, state of the art lane equipment, tight revenue controls, solid audit features and ultra customer service convenience are just a couple of reasons why our revaccpro.net technology is changing the industry. Last but not least, our company supports all of the installations with our own technicians – direct – not a distributor or third party alliance. Aesthetically by far the most attractive new line of equipment in the industry, our innovative Universal Lane Device (ULD) is designed to accommodate any entrance/exit reader/printer configuration desired. The unit’s exchangeable top panel allows it to be equipped with a number of peripheral combinations to satisfy your lane requirements. Uniting industrial strength for lasting durability, innovative technology for faster traffic flow, and ergonomic design, our leading-edge technology barrier gates are one of the safest and most reliable products you will find. Embedded computer technology and a direct drive AC motor with speed decelerator are key components in making this piece of hardware one of the most feature rich, robust and maintenance free gates in the industry. Our STS Enterprise Solution architecture offers truly integrated solutions for ALL your perimeter access, parking, valet parking and front service needs. Created by one and the same company, developed on the latest .net technology platform, you are subscribing to the best and most innovative solutions in the business.

Bell Desk Systems:

BellDeskPro is a comprehensive hardware and software solution designed to increase process efficiency, allow you to manage more effectively and elevate your customer service experience. From a single desk-top terminal to a flexible multi-user system, a smart and efficient solution is finally available to an industry which has been trailing the technology boom for too long. The bell staff loves it because it evenly distributes the service tasks among the crew and without bias, grouping them into common area tasks as needed. The Bell Captain loves it because the look-up of any task or bellman whereabouts is only a click away. Customers love it because it provides faster service. Lost ticket? No problem! Front Service Technology is nothing new. From high-tech valet parking systems to front desk check-in kiosks, smart technology has penetrated virtually all facets of the service industry, except for the bell desk. In most locations, the bell desk operates today the same way it did fifty years ago. We’ve changed that. Much like in the valet world, a bell desk operation can also benefit from tracking the various stages of their tickets and fronts. BellDeskPro is built on widely popular Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0. Powered by a Microsoft SQL Server database; BellDeskPro provides you with an extensive set of reports, features, customizable options and expansion modules. The user-friendly application provides all entities involved in your bell desk operation with their own set of tools. Mobile Technology has become a popular tool and can be quite effective in the right application of your bell desk operations. Bell Captains can use wireless devices to access BellDeskPro to monitor their bell desk at any moment. Alerts can trigger managers when their attention is needed, giving managers much more flexibility to dedicate their time to additional matters. In the porte-cochere, wireless hand-held devices can enhance the arrival process with print-on-demand ticketing. An inventory scanner can be used to ‘align’ bags and bin numbers prior to a busy departure period. Items can also be scanned in as they are stored in the bins. Self-service request modules allow guests to initiate their bag retrieval and delivery with a simple scan of their bar coded ticket number. Guests can also request service through the dial-up request voice activated module. The request is automatically sent to the baggage room dispatch terminal, expediting the delivery. Delivery locations can be assigned near the originating request kiosks or to specified locations such as valet, taxi, limo and other hotel and resort terminals.

Count Systems:

Vehicle count technology is an effective way to monitor space availability for a given parking level or lot, direct traffic to more accessible areas and minimize redundant ramp traffic all at the same time. Collectively, this translates into maximized space utilization, increased revenues, decreased accident liabilities and a time-saving feature of convenience your patrons will appreciate. Last but not least, the less time patrons spend in your parking facility searching for a space, the more time they will have to visit your establishment. In addition to inductive loop count technology, we offer optional high definition camera and license plate recognition modules. These add-ons provide you with a wealth of information above and beyond traditional count systems. Exceptions are easily identified and the system can automatically highlight any visitor type category you’d like to track, such as employee, security or maintenance vehicles. With an interface to the NCIC, you will also be able to flag stolen vehicles and other undesired visitors. This kind of look-up power will prove invaluable the next time you need positive proof of a vehicle’s arrival and departure date and time. CountSysPro versatile technology platform is able to accept and process any generic dry contact input signal to trigger counts. Some of the most common methods include single or dual induction loops at key entry and exit lanes or any number of lane devices, such as our cutting edge Jetson ULD. CountSysPro is compatible with a number of sign manufacturers, including Signal-Tech, which is one of the leading manufacturers of LED signs, LED displays, custom LED signs, neon signs, and directional signal lights. Its illuminated traffic controllers inform, maintain and facilitate efficient traffic flow in and around areas of congestion; they are designed to speed customer service and eliminate confusion. CountSysPro Software Suite is a completely scalable open architecture application built on the latest .NET 3.5 platform, utilizing Microsoft’s graphically rich Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) front end and a robust SQL Server Database backend. The Microsoft .NET Framework is a key Microsoft offering intended to be used by most new applications created for the Windows Platform.

Vehicle Imaging:

One of our most popular system modules is the High Definition IP Digital Camera Module. It provides the comfort of knowing whether or not an alleged damage liability was incurred while the vehicle was in your care. No more guess work, irate customers or time consuming case building. Here, a picture is worth a thousand words. The idea of documenting the physical condition of a vehicle in order to ascertain the origin of damage liability has become an industry favorite ever since we invented and brought this technology to market back in the 1990’s (U.S. Patent Issue #6630893). If you spend more than $10K/year paying out for frivolous claims or find yourself in the embarrassing position of labeling your employees or customers guilty until proven innocent, this technology can save you a lot of money … and time (Return on Investment). The HDIP Image Monitor provides you with the right tools to select a particular image, search for the damage, zoom in on it without losing definition and capture the result for your risk management file. Search, click, zoom, capture, paste, e-mail and you’re done!
Our latest HDIP Camera Lane technology includes 4-8 High Def cameras in dome housings that can be post or wall mounted. The Jetson UPLD is a cutting edge universal lane device capable of addressing a wide range of lane function requirements, including jpeg and mpeg processing, video intercom, ticket issuance, license plate recognition and much more. Car Dealerships, Car Rental Agencies and Taxi Companies are a few more examples of industries where documenting the physical damage of the vehicles before they are surrendered to the various entities for use, can reduce the company’s liability expense significantly.
