Automatic License Plate Recognition (ALPR) is an embedded real-time technology that automatically recognizes a vehicle’s license plate. There are numerous uses, ranging from complex security to shared spaces, parking to acceleration. The ALPR is used to control the traffic and to take hold for those who violate the traffic rules. Automatic recognition of vehicle license plate numbers has become critical in our daily lives due to the rapid expansion of autos and transportation systems, which makes it difficult for the general public to keep up with and monitor. A license plate identification system uses image processing theory and soft computing technology to identify cars based on their number plates. Using fewer and simpler algorithms can reduce both calculation time and execution time needed by most number plate localization approaches. This is because most of these techniques require several operations. License plate recognition is the most used approach in traffic-related applications. Various approaches, tactics, and algorithms have been developed for the identification and recognition of license plates. In the context of Indian license plate identification, only a few research have looked at the topic. Character segmentation and character recognition are two of the three key steps in identifying a license plate.
