Vehicle Number Plate Recognition System

This Python script detects vehicle number plates in images using Haar cascades for object detection and Tesseract OCR for text recognition.

Requirements

  • Python 3.x
  • OpenCV (cv2)
  • pytesseract
  • NumPy

Installation

  1. Install Python 3.x from python.org.
  2. Install required Python packages using pip:
pip install opencv-python pytesseract numpy

Download the Haar cascade XML file for Russian number plate detection from here and place it in the same directory as the script.

Make sure Tesseract OCR is installed on your system. Refer to the Tesseract OCR installation instructions for details.

Usage

Run the script with the path to the input image as an argument:

python number_plate_recognition_system.py /path/to/input/image.jpg

This will display the input image with detected number plates highlighted and the extracted text printed to the console.

Example

python number_plate_recognition_system.py /path/to/image.jpg
