Speedcam Anywhere – Turn your phone into a mobile radar
The Speedcam Anywhere app allows you to capture passing cars and calculate their speed in real time.
Feel like a traffic cop with the help of Speedcam Anywhere.
Installed on the smartphone, the application allows users to record the speed of moving vehicles using advanced artificial intelligence, report Auto Moto and The Guardian .
Just point the camera: the phone turns into a real mobile radar.
How does it work?
You film a short video of a car passing by.
The clip is automatically uploaded to a server.
The AI algorithm calculates the speed based on the images, compares it to the local limit and generates a detailed report with proof of speeding.
By reading the license plate number, the app also displays additional information about the vehicle.
Precision
According to the developers, the error is only ±3 km/h for users of the paid Pro version .
With the free database, the error reaches about 10% .
Propagation and reactions
Already available in the UK , the app is not yet listed in the French App Store and is marked as unavailable for Android.
It was created by a British team with the aim of improving road safety “by drawing attention to the problem of speeding.”
However, this raises concerns among some drivers about possible abuse and “opportunistic” reporting.
