Abstract

Automatic plate recognition is useful for everyday life, for example for law enforcement, traffic control, access to restricted areas, E-Tolls, or for checking in parking areas. The police number plate or TNKB is the main identity of a motorized vehicle that is roadworthy or operating on the highway. Thus, we can use the license plate to identify the vehicle owner. This study aims to recognize vehicle number plates using an Android smartphone. Using a camera on a handphone to scan the plate image, and it is processed to find out the vehicle owner’s information from the numbered plate being scanned. This study also uses Optical Character Recognition in processing images scanned by the camera where the steps taken are image acquisition, pre-processing, segmentation, normalization, feature extraction and recognition. The results show that the camera on an Android smartphone can be used to read and display information on number plate owners and also show that vehicle plate recognition using Optical Character Recognition based on the tests conducted shows the percentage of successful character recognition on motorized vehicle plates by 75% while the characters are equal to 97.36%.
