Abstract :
A smart and simple algorithm is presented for a vehicle license plate recognition system. Based on pattern matching, this algorithm can be applied for real time detection of license plates for collecting data for surveying or for some application specific purposes. The proposed system has been prototyped using C++ and the experimental results have been shown for recognition of Alberta license plates.
