Week 7: Block Diagram



The General Proposed of ANPR System



Description of Block Diagram;

The ANPR system will obtain the input which it is image from a digital camera that will place at toll booth. After obtaining the image which contain number plate vehicle, the next step is preprocessing. Preprocessing step is the first step in number plate recognition and it consist the following major stages which is binarization and noise removal. Binarization is initially process to improve the quality and prepare it to next stage of the system. Noise removal is the step to remove the noise of the image to get better, clear and sharpness of images. Next, number plate localization is the steps to localize the number plate. Character segmentation will subdiving an image into constituent parts or isolating certain aspects of an images. If the segmentation fails, a character can be improperly divided into two pieces or two characters can be improperly merged together. Character recognition will scan the image by allowing the system automatically recognize and extract text content from number plate images. Final stage is the output of images that has been through all of process. The output will come out with ASCII character. However, this project using MATLAB GUI so the output will be display using GUI.

Week 6: Objectives


Objectives of Project

These are the objectives for this project: 
  • Develop a system for the purpose of toll payment.
  • To develop a program using MATLAB and implement the character recognition.
  • To enhance the existing technique or algorithms.
