Abstract

ABSTRACT Automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) is an image processing technology which uses number plate to identify the vehicle. The objective is to design an efficient automatic authorized vehicle identification system by using the vehicle number plate. The system will be implemented on the entrance of Yobe State University, Damaturu, for security control. The developed system first detects the vehicle and then captures the vehicle image. Vehicle number plate region is extracted using the image segmentation in an image. Optical character recognition technique is used for the character recognition. The resulting data is then stored in a specific location in the directory for later verification etc. The system is implemented and simulated in python, and it performance is tested on real image. It is observed from the experiment that the developed system successfully detects and recognize the vehicle number plate on real images.
