Week 5: The Summary of Project



Automatic Number Plate Recognition Technology


It is technical method of artificial vision (OCR) that allows the recognition of number plates in images of vehicles.

Generally, the ANPR technology can be bought in two modalities:
  • The ANPR engine: can recognize the number plate directly from the images stored in a hard disk.
  • The ANPR equipment (Hardware Recognition engine): all the hardware necessary to capture the images of the vehicles and to recognize the number plate and offer the maximum reliability.


How does ANPR system works:

The ANPR process is divided into three steps.
  • Detection of the vehicle: The first step is to take an image of the vehicle at the right time.
  • Capture of the images: Once the vehicle is detected, the following step is the capture of the vehicle.
  • Number plate recognition process: Each ANPR manufacturer has developed its own recognition algorithms.

Conclusion, the ANPR technology is a good system to implement in any suitable system although it has advantages and disadvantages.

week 3: Official Title


Title of Project



After doing a little research on the Automatic Number Plate Recognition system which can be attributed to various factors. The will focusing on toll collecting payment and also the simulation how the ANPR system work. Me and my advisor decided to choose this project;


"SIMULATION OF AUTOMATIC NUMBER PLATE RECOGNITION USING MATLAB FOR TOLL PAYMENT"

Week 1: Brainstorming


Brainstorming for Final Year Project 1

This week is the first week to registers subject for Final Year Project 1 (FYP1). After that, all students who taken this subject must to find a supervisor. A supervisor will monitoring and in charge on the whole of project.

The main focus of this week is to brainstorming for ideas. My supervisor is open in the selection of project ideas. As the beginning of brainstorming, I will to focusing on what type of final output the project would be. After done with searching and  research, several topics of project have been selected, then discussions with supervisor to select the best idea for project.


This is several topics of project that I choosen:

  • Landslide detection using wireless network sensor
  • Automatic Number Plate Car Parking
  • Automatic Number Plate Recognition For Toll Payment
