Pollutrack-An On-Road Emission Detection and Inspection

System.
ABSTRACT

In this project we are proposing a cloud-based air quality detection system that analyzes the data
for providing atmospheric quality to the user in real time. In addition to this, the database from the
Regional Transport Office (RTO) and the Computerized Pollution Check Centers of corresponding
city provide a basis for a comparative analysis of the variances in the spectrum of emissions from
vehicles and sensor-based data coming from strategic locations. This combination along with the
knowledge of the geographic and industrial properties of the area will help analyses the data for
finding patterns in air quality in a particular time interval. The proposed model will then be able
to predict the air quality for future days. A web and mobile application interface will help the users
to check and understand the air quality at their current location. The mobile application will also
notify the user about severe toxicity. People with respiratory problems will be able to get
personalized notifications for poor conditions. During this system, the controller reads the sensor
value and sends it to the raspberry pi through serial transmission. This technology as an
inexpensive and mature wireless communication methodology is adopted to gather and transmit
emissions data of vehicles and Internet of Things (IoT) concept is proposed.

In our project we propose a number plate recognition algorithm for vehicle identification.

Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) is a surveillance system using optical

character recognition (OCR) that extracts the information from the vehicle license plate by
capturing the images. This project implements a Completely Automated license Plate Recognition
system using the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to read the information on the images of
license plate of vehicles captured by the camera on real time basis. The image of the Vehicles
License plate is captured and is processed by the segmentation of the characters and is verified by
the Raspberry Pi Processor for the authentication purpose.
