FYP: Security Project using ANPR
For my final year project, I will be designing a home security system using Automatic Number Plate recognition (ANPR). This project will be designed to run on a Raspberry Pi Model 4, with Pi Camera, using Open CV and Python for ANPR and Pin out on the Raspberry Pi, C++ for data parsing and python for a web page.
Then concept of my project is that the raspberry pi will continuously scan for licence plates of vehicles. When a number plate is detected, a picture will be sent to server, and the owner of the house will be notified. If the number plate matches an approved set of number plates (curated by the homeowner) then the system will open the set of electric gates and allow the vehicle to enter. Other features of the system include:- Notifying the homeowner when a known number plate is detected
- A user interface that give ability to add/remove known number plates to the system
- Database of pictures with relevant information (Date, time, number plate, accuracy)
- Homeowner granting access to premise remotely
- If a vehicle is detected for more than 1 minute, the system will record video and alert the homeowner
- A keypad to enter a pin to allow access
