Every visitor must be processed by a Virtual Guard on their visit at a community with a Virtual Gate Guard. If the guest is listed in MyEnvera as permanent or temporary, the system will associate the vehicle’s license plate or the guest’s driver’s license with the visitor record. Both Automatic License Plate Recognition and Automatic Driver’s License Recognition use optical character recognition to turn the license plate image or driver’s license image into data. When the same guest returns to the community, an image of the license plate or driver’s license will be captured and cross-referenced with approved visitor records. If a match is found, the guest is automatically verified and granted entry.
