Segmentation and recognition plays a key role in the Number Plate Recognition (NPR) structure. It is a picture
dispensation knowledge which uses number plates to recognize the object. Substantial literature exists and extensive research has
been done till now regarding number plate recognition systems to resolve recognition problems and how it can be used in real
time. The objective is to develop an efficient system using number plates. The proposed system first detects a vehicle and then
captures its image which is followed by extraction of number plate location followed by recognition. The output plate number
obtained is then matched with the data records saved in the database to acquire information of driver's name, vehicle registration
place.
