Fast forward to 2022, Jenoptik launched its Agenda 2025. The core of this growth agenda is the group’s focus on the three high-growth future markets of semiconductors & electronics, life science & medical technology as well as smart mobility.

In 2013, the VECTOR integrated ANPR camera was launched, providing a highly capable, standard platform for the most challenging of ANPR projects. VECTOR continues to be the cornerstone of ongoing developments, with applications for civil & criminal enforcement, police ANPR and private sector car park management & access control.

Speed Check Services (SCS) was created in 1999 to bring the SPECS average speed enforcement to market and worked as CRS’s marketing/delivery partner for this specialist solution.

In 2010, Vysionics was created following the acquisitions of CRS and Speed Check Services (SCS). Using over thirty years of practical experience, the latest generation of Vysionics ANPR systems used the very best in camera, processor, software and illumination technologies, providing general or application specific solutions for a huge variety of traffic monitoring tasks.

ESSA Technology, through the use of powerful data mining and analysis tools, interfaced real time vehicle information with operators’ data and objectives. With a long history in back office (BOF) applications for ANPR, ESSA had collaboratively worked with Jenoptik prior to the acquisition on several innovative traffic monitoring and control applications, including Police networks, weigh in motion (WIM), average speed enforcement, and red X monitoring, to name a few.

Following the introduction of the "More Light" corporate strategy in early 2019, Jenoptik continued to develop into a focused photonics group with a "More International" footprint and drive for "More Innovation".

Germany-based technology group Jenoptik acquired Vysionics in November 2014; through Jenoptik’s extensive network of regional offices and distributors, Vysionics’ market leading ANPR and average speed enforcement solutions benefited from exposure to this global marketplace. In addition, new devices and sensors became available to the Vysionics development team, opening up a new range of enforcement and monitoring solutions.

In May 2016, Vysionics changed its name to Jenoptik Traffic Solutions UK. A year on from the re-brand, Jenoptik acquired all shares in ESSA Technology, a UK software developer specialising in police and enforcement back-office solutions.
