Conclusion:-

In conclusion, vehicle plate recognition is an important

technology that has a wide range of applications in
various fields such as law enforcement, traffic
management, and parking enforcement. The
implementation of a successful vehicle plate recognition
system requires the use of advanced computer vision
techniques such as image processing, feature extraction,
and pattern recognition.

A well-designed vehicle plate recognition system can

accurately and efficiently identify license plates and
extract relevant information such as vehicle registration
number and owner information. The performance of a
vehicle plate recognition system can be evaluated using
various metrics such as accuracy, precision, and recall,
and the results can be used to fine-tune and optimize
the system's performance.

Overall, the development and implementation of a

vehicle plate recognition system can greatly enhance
the efficiency and accuracy of various transportation-
related operations and can help to improve public safety
and security. As technology continues to advance, we
can expect to see further improvements in the field of
vehicle plate recognition, leading to even more accurate
and efficient systems.
 Training
First Train the neural network using the Scaled Conjugate
Gradient technique

GUI of Proposed System

Load Button

By clicking on Load Button a selected image show on GUI.

Load Button of GUI Proposed system

Test Button
By clicking on the Test Button, the System extracts the
number plate number from the image and shows it in
the Processing area of the GUI. The system will compare
the extracted text of the number plate to the saved
number plate number of the authorized car and show
the Status of whether it is authorized or not

Test Button of GUI Proposed system

 Save Button
The new record can be saved by clicking on the Save button.

Limitations and Future Work

Limitations
Due to time constraints, Database could not be created.
Record saved in Excel.

Future Work
In the future, Image capturing system will install. The
camera will place on the door, and when the car will
arrive camera captures a picture of the front of the car
then localize the number plate and do a further
recognition process. If the number plate is authorized
then the door will open otherwise an alarm will ring.
