Automatic Number Plate Recognition System for Vehicle Identification

The proposed system will be designed as for the automatic vehicle identification for the security purpose. The number plate of the vehicle is identified by image identification technology. This system can be implemented for the security checking in the area of the parliament and defence military area and also used in the toll plaza, parking fee collection etc. The images of the vehicles will be captured by cameras and those captured images will be processed by MATLAB. Here the MATLAB is used for the image identification and vehicle number extraction. The system contains embedded section for the automatic control of the gate and communication purpose. A LCD screen will be provided at the entry of the gate to gives the instruction to the driver and whether he is permitted to this area or not and the message will be passed to security cabin. The communication between MATLAB and microcontroller is done by using Zigbee. We can also extend to get the information of the vehicle owner, by incorporating the RTO database. The embedded section is programmed by using embedded c.
