Looking for how to blur license plates in video before sending a clip outside the office? Auto Video Redaction is Windows software that will do the job for you without manual video editing or license plate selection.

How to Blur License Plates in Video Automatically

Add video clips with vehicles.
1

Add video clips with vehicles

Drag and drop source videos or click the Add Files top bar button. You can add an entire folder of incidents for batch processing.

Enable the License Plates mode.
2

Enable the License Plates mode

Enable the License plates checkbox in the right toolbar. You can also enable or disable checkboxes to blur heads, full bodies, or custom boxes. You can also choose how to mask the plates from the selection box: use blur, pixelation, or a black rectangle overlay.

(Optional) Configure Plate Detection and Frame Skips.

(Optional) Configure Plate Detection and Frame Skips

AI detection sometimes fails to detect license plates on night CCTV and long videos. Use the Plate confidence slider and lower the value if detection fails. If AI detection slips on only a few frames, our algorithms will interpolate between the previous frames and blur the plate anyway.

Run the Batch Mode.

Run the Batch Mode

Check the destination folder and click the Start button. The program will blur car plates and other sensitive objects in the videos and save them to the destination folder.

Why Blur Plates Using Windows Software?

Unlike online tools, using desktop software keeps all your videos on your local computer. Most online tools lack automatic AI license plate detection, so you end up selecting every plate by hand - nearly impossible if you need to blur plates on moving cars. Online tools also have file limits and cannot process 5-hour videos.

Private and Secure

With SoftOrbits software you can:

  • Process your videos locally without uploading them to third-party servers.
  • Automatically detect plates, faces, heads, and body silhouettes in dashcam videos and CCTV recordings.
  • Manually add regions to blur documents, phone or laptop screens, and other confidential information in traffic videos.
  • Process an unlimited number of videos in Batch mode.
  • You don't need a GPU, though one speeds up processing.

Automatic Moving Object Detection and Tracing

Choose which objects to detect using AI and adjust the detection confidence. You can also configure the software to run AI detection on every Nth frame only, which speeds up processing several times over.

Three Visual Styles for Anonymization

Use Gaussian blur, pixelation, or black rectangles depending on your internal needs or reviewer requirements.

Exports in Multiple Video and Audio Formats

The program supports exporting to MP4, MOV, AVI, MKV, MTV, WMV, and over 12 other formats, or you can choose to keep the original source format. You can also configure the video and audio bitrate and frame rate.

Frequently Asked Questions

This depends on your PC hardware, the resolution, and the duration of the video. To speed up processing, use the Detection Frequency option to scan only every Nth frame.

The AI is trained on a massive dataset and can detect license plates from any country, regardless of size or angle.

Blurring license plates is required to maintain privacy for legal compliance, insurance cases, and corporate data-sharing policies. If your clip also shows people, here is how to blur faces in video in the same app.
