the cameras themselves are actualy kind of crappy. Just enough resolution to read a license plate, the image files would be gigantic for them to render a vin legible. The camera is fixed. An operator manualy zooms in on the image itself during processing like you would looking at an image file on the computer. For a camera to track a moving car and zoom in on the vin is near impossible with todays tech.
