This paper presents a novel method of identifying and recognizing license plates, required by an automatic vehicle identification system. The main challenge was the isolation of the car’s license plate, from the digital image acquired by the video system, under different illumination conditions and various angles. Thus, we have established the required preprocessing operations leading to succes...

⎯ This paper presents an automatic license plate recognition algorithm by using webcam. The images of vehicle license plate, which were captured by using webcam are noised, illuminated and skewed under natural environment. We have to preprocess to get clean binary image and extract each character area to recognize numbers. But they are not simple jobs. In this paper, the high-speed and sophisti...

In recent years, there has been a lot of research in license plate recognition, and many license plate recognition systems have been proposed and used. In the past, the license plate recognition system was a key element in many applications such as traffic control and parking lots access control. In this article, the authors present current research in license plate recognition, and elaborate o...
