- Open a terminal and “cd” into the “sighthound-alpr” folder created in step 2 of the installation.
- Pull down updates if they exist:
docker pull sighthound/alpr
- Stop and remove the old ALPR service container:
docker stop sighthound-alpr && docker rm sighthound-alpr
- Create a new Docker container with the latest Sighthound ALPR:
