License Plate Recognition System

Introduction

This repository contains a Python script for license plate recognition using computer vision. The script is designed to work in Google Colab, making it convenient for cloud-based image processing.

Requirements

To run the script, you need:

• Google Colab account
• Image with a visible license plate (e.g., JPEG format)

Instructions

1. Upload Your Image:

   • Upload your image file (e.g., your_image.jpg) to your Google Drive or directly to Google Colab.

2. Run the Code:

   • Open the License_Plate_Recognition.ipynb notebook in Google Colab.
   • Replace 'your_image_path.jpg' with the actual path to your uploaded image.
   • Execute the cells one by one.

3. View Results:

   • The script will display the original image with the detected license plate bounding box.
   • Additionally, the extracted license plate region will be shown.

Example

# Replace 'your_image_path.jpg' with the path to your image
find_license_plate('/content/your_image.jpg')

Input Image

Output Image

Note: Make sure to replace 'your_image.jpg' with the actual name of your image file.
