Automatic Number Plate Segmentation and Recognition System: Integrating ALPR Technology into Mobile Platforms

Abstract

A procedure known as automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) involves extracting licenseplate data from a series of video frames or images that have been collected. Law enforcement officials canuse ALPR to rapidly detect stolen automobiles or obtain vehicle information from those who break trafficregulations. It is also frequently used as a method of electronic payment for parking fees or tolls. ALPR istypically placed on a PC-based platform to make use of its processing capacity to process high-resolutioncameras' high-quality picture captures. Recently, the majority of smartphones come with a good camera speedier processing system that can be used to create portable ALPR systems. As a result, numerousacademics have been motivated to work on integrating ALPR technology into cameras. In this work, wereviewed a number of studies that used ALPR on a mobile platform. We go over the methods applied to thethree key ALPR stages of location, segmentation, recognition.
