What The cameras Look Like
Flock Safety markets several surveillance products, but the automated license plate reader (ALPR) cameras most commonly deployed are distinctive surveillance devices characterized by their small, black oval housing and prominent camera lens positioned to capture vehicles traveling in high-traffic lanes. These cameras are typically equipped with black square solar panels to maintain continuous operation without visible wiring, making them appear more innocuous than traditional surveillance equipment.
Over at deflock.org, they have a more detailed breakdown of what Flock and other ALPR cameras look like.
Where to Find them
In University City, these devices are scattered throughout our community, though the majority appear to be in Ward 3.
They are strategically mounted on utility poles, traffic signal structures, and street signs near major intersections and freeway entry/exit points — locations chosen to maximize data collection from both local residents and visitors alike. Their positioning creates an extensive surveillance network that captures vehicle movement patterns throughout the city. When paired with the data of other cameras in St Louis County, this technology can be quite powerful – and dangerous.
