Smart Apps - Automated Number Plate Recognition System

Abstract

None of the dashboard camera available in the market is capable to localize and recognize car plate and hence it is not suitable to be used in accident tracking, car robbery, and bag thief smashes car window purposes. An android based system could replace the dashboard camera as the hardware design of smartphone is much powerful compared to any dashboard camera. This research aims to develop an android based apps that capable to localize and recognize and car plate using Artificial Neural Neural (ANN) controllers. This research aims to 1) develop an android app that can autonomously localize multiple car plates, 2) develop app that capable to recognize the captured car plates, and 3) develop an app that is able to localize and recognize > 95% of captured number plates with very minimal cost. This proposed app could be very useful to track/prevent crimination especially those related to car robbery, window smasher by motorbike rider, accident tracking and probably kidnapping case.
