AUTOMATIC NUMBER PLATE RECOGNITION









Abstract

Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) is a mass surveillance system that captures the image of vehicles and recognizes their license number. ANPR can be assisted in the detection of stolen vehicles. This paper presents a recognition method in which the vehicle plate image is obtained by the digital cameras and the image is processed to get the number plate information. A rear image of a vehicle is captured and processed using various algorithms. The ANPR is the image processing technique to extract the image of the license plate. To read and visualize images, we will be using OpenCV with Python. Also, to identify the vehicles using their number plates we will require Optical Character Recognition (OCR).
