ANPR — Automatic Number Plate Recognition

Feel free to try out this Auto­matic Num­ber Plate Recog­ni­tion demo… upload a pho­to­graph with a car’s licence plate in the frame and it’ll try and read it… it takes some time to process so be patient. It isn’t very reliable:

    Hi Jon,

    Is the under­ly­ing script for this writ­ten in PHP? I was going to start work on a script for one of my own projects — it requires an uploaded pho­to­graph to have the num­ber plate blurred.

    The blur­ring part is easy using GD or imag­ick, but find­ing the let­ters to be blurred is less so — I was look­ing at PHP solu­tions for OCR etc… until I saw your implementation!

    Any point­ers?

    Thanks,

    Ray
