README.md openalpr OpenALPR is an open source Automatic License Plate Recognition library written in C++ with bindings in C#, Java, Node.js, Go, and Python. The library analyzes images and video streams to identify license plates. The output is the text representation of any license plate characters. Check out a live online demo here: User Guide OpenALPR includes a command line utility. Simply typing 'alpr [image file path]' is enough to get started recognizing license plate images. Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah 28 July 2008 Full Episode here. For example, the following output is created by analyzing this image: user@linux:~/openalpr$ alpr./samplecar.png plate0: top 10 results -- Processing Time = 58.1879ms.

Default=us --config Path to the openalpr.conf file -n, --topn Max number of possible plate numbers to return. Default=10 --seek Seek to the specified millisecond in a video file. Default=0 -p, --pattern Attempt to match the plate number against a plate pattern (e.g., md for Maryland, ca for California) --clock Measure/print the total time to process image and all plates. Default=off -d, --detect_region Attempt to detect the region of the plate image. [Experimental] Default=off -j, --json Output recognition results in JSON format.

If you’re a longtime PyImageSearch reader, then you’ll know that I’m a huge fan of both virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper. Installing these packages.

Default=off --, --ignore_rest Ignores the rest of the labeled arguments following this flag. --version Displays version information and exits. -h, --help Displays usage information and exits.

Please see this guide for examples showing how to run OpenALPR in your application: Compiling OpenALPR compiles and runs on Linux, Mac OSX and Windows. OpenALPR requires the following additional libraries: - Tesseract OCR v3.0.4 (- OpenCV v2.4.8+ (After cloning this GitHub repository, you should download and extract Tesseract and OpenCV source code into their own directories. Compile both libraries. Please follow these detailed compilation guides for your respective operating system: • • • • • • • If all went well, there should be an executable named alpr along with libopenalpr-static.a and libopenalpr.so that can be linked into your project. # Build docker image docker build -t openalpr # Download test image wget # Run alpr on image docker run -it --rm -v $(pwd ):/data:ro openalpr -c eu h786poj.jpg Questions Please post questions or comments to the Google group list: Contributions Improvements to the OpenALPR library are always welcome.

Please review the and get started. Code contributions are not the only way to help out. Do you have a large library of license plate images? If so, please upload your data to the anonymous FTP located at upload.openalpr.com. Download Video Ceng Zamzam Antassalam on this page. Do you have time to 'tag' plate images in an input image or help in other ways? Please let everyone know by posting a note in the forum.
