Hello,and welcome back to teckhme .Today ,The project presented here can be used to identify a vehicle's license plate from an image stored in a database. That is, it is designed to recognize a vehicle's license plate and then use MATLAB software to extract information about that vehicle.
The purpose of vehicle registration by government agencies is to establish a link between a vehicle and its owner or user. License plates are usually alphanumeric and uniquely identify the vehicle in the licensing authority's database. These license plates can have different colors, fonts and sizes, depending on the country and its regulations.
The principle of operation of the ANPR system
The AN
PR system camera captures the image of the vehicle's license plate and then the image is processed by a number of algorithms to provide alphanumeric conversion of the image to text format. ANPR system is used in many places such as petrol pumps, shopping malls, airports, highways, toll booths, hotels, hospitals, parking lots, military and defense checkpoints, etc.
There are many image processing tools available for number plate detection, but here in this project I will be using MATLAB image processing to get a car license plate number in text format.
