Raspberry pi based License plate extraction from still images

In this paper we propose a completely automated license plate recognition system. The project aims at designing a system which automatically captures the image of the number plate of a vehicle and these details were verified using Raspberry Pi processor for authentication. The system also alerts the authorities when any unauthorized image of number plate was detected using buzzer alarm system. When the authorized vehicle was detected then the system operates the gate using DC motor. Index terms: ARM-11Raspberry Pi Processor; USB camera; Dc motor; Buzzer alarm
