Abstract
Vehicle number plate recognition plays a significant role in many areas. In this paper, an efficient and an amazingly simple method is used to recognize the number plate. In the proposed method, Open CV library along with python language is used for image processing using py tesseract. The input image is taken and converted into grayscale image and the processed image is filtered through bilateral filter to remove unwanted characters. In this paper, Canny edge detection method is used to detect the edges of license plate. TESSERACT is used as an Optical Character Recognition (OCR).
