The strategy of the project is to design automatic system for opening a gate without

mounting any signal transmitter on the car. Thus, the project is to investigate and

construct an application whereby the system will recognize the Vehicle license plate at a

gate entrance of the parking lot. The system will be based on a personal computer and

software packages available, MATLAB program and a digital camera, which help to

capture the images of the vehicle license plate.

We will conduct a research and developed a system that is able to extract the vehicle

license plate. Next, we also need to create an algorithm to train and identify the vehicle

license plate for the purpose of recognition
