Abstract

Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) is the process of identifying the unique number of the vehicle from a still image or chain of image (video). ANPR includes the following processes Number Plate Location (NPL), Character Segmentation and Number Plate Recognition. The extracted output is used in various applications like security purposes, lane departure, toll gate, arterial monitoring system for traffic surveillance and parking lots. The characters are recognized with a standard data base using template matching algorithm. The proposed method is tested on 50 vehicle images which are captured from different illumination condition and complex back ground condition.
