Hi, whenever i'm trying to import cv2 and other my jupyter kernel The kernel appears to have died. It will restart automatically. do you have any solution?
Thanks, this has helped simplify a lot of techniques I was getting my head around. Such a great pipeline, and a great tutorial. Keep them up in the same style!
Everything worked perfectly fine and I even got the cropped number plate but the line result = reader.readtext(cropped_image) Showing unknown C++ exception from opencv code I don't have GPU so using CPU only Plz help
it's not working on Pakistani number plates like a dual-line on the number plate i.e: FD-13 388 here is only detect FD not other text on the number plate how i can fix it ????

hello bro, thank you so much for your habitual collaboration am mohamed from morocco im technician IT support I have an end-of-study project, the theme of the project is to find the lisence numbers of cars that do not respect the car code, the numbers sought (wanted) are filled in a file with the idea it is while driving to put a phone camera on the road which detects the plate number once we find a similar number in the file that we already have we receive a notification that it is the target car could you.helo me pleaaase anyone can help me ..urgent request
Heya @Mohamed, sure, happy to help! You can start out by: 1. Defining a list of plates that don't meet the code 2. Run your video frame by frame through the OCR code in the tutorial 3. Check if the plate detected is in the list using standard python functionality e.g. if plate in plates_list 4. You might need something a little more hardcore than a phone to run the code though, possibly a jetson nano

Heya @Kenny, can you check you have a compatible version of Tensorflow, CUDA and cuDNN from this list: www.tensorflow.org/install/source you need to have a matching combination otherwise Tensorflow doesn't pick up GPU acceleration.
Hi, Nick, Great video. I did spend a lot of time on the Tensorflow version of this project that you posted a while back. What do you see as the plusses and minuses of the two different approaches?
The TF version is a lot more resilient to different photos of plates. This almost needs to be tuned each time depending on lighting, contrast, hue and sat to be able to effectively pick up the plate each time. However the TF version is wayyyy more compute heavy.

Normally would need to do some additional processes to manually filter it out. Could also filter based on detected region size i.e. the main plate is going to be the largest detected block of text (most of the time)

Heya @H-Electronics, it might take some additional processing to detect. What I would suggest is using a DL model to identify the region with the plate, single out the region, apply perspective transformation (www.pyimagesearch.com/2014/08/25/4-point-opencv-getperspective-transform-example/) THEN applying OCR.
@@NicholasRenotte Oops! The page you are looking for no longer exists. Perhaps starting from the site's homepage will get you on the right track. XD That what I found
@@NicholasRenotte I am thinking of an algorithm to detect all the possible rectangles in the frame and then by machine learning try to identify whether this rectangle is a plate or not. Like the algorithm that recognize if this animal is cat or dog.The problem I think it will not be efficient because the processing time will belong. What do you think?

Any suggestions?
Heya @H-Electronics, it might take some additional processing to detect. What I would suggest is using a DL model to identify the region with the plate, single out the region, apply perspective transformation (www.pyimagesearch.com/2014/08/25/4-point-opencv-getperspective-transform-example/) THEN applying OCR.
@@NicholasRenotte Oops!
The page you are looking for no longer exists. Perhaps starting from the site's homepage will get you on the right track.
XD That what I found
@@NicholasRenotte I am thinking of an algorithm to detect all the possible rectangles in the frame and then by machine learning try to identify whether this rectangle is a plate or not. Like the algorithm that recognize if this animal is cat or dog.The problem I think it will not be efficient because the processing time will belong. What do you think?
@@h-electronics602 from what I've seen, it's normally a little slower than using non-deep learning powered OCR. It should be a lot more resilient to different styled plates though!
My kernel dies when I import easyocr. Is there any solution?
hey did u solve it ?
Sir how can we create the front end for this project by using flask.
I get an error when installing torch, windows 10
"Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement"
Heya @Gimantha, what command did you use to run the install?
@@NicholasRenotte hey thanks for the reply, the command i used is,
pip install torch==1.8.1+cu102 torchvision==0.9.1+cu102 torchaudio===0.8.1 -f download.pytorch.org/whl/torch_stable.html
@@gimanthadesilva And you're running Python 3.x? I'd check this and make sure that the machine you're running meets the dependencies: pytorch.org/get-started/locally/
@@gimanthadesilva make sure you are running 64 bit python, I had this issue too
hi nicholas the video was literally awseome. but there is one thing i need to ask is how can i store the results in my data base because i am working on a parking system based on facial recognition and license plate recognition i have to first save the license plate result then go to the next process of verification and other stuff help will be appreciated.
Depends on your db but you could output the results using a Python SQL client or something along those lines!
@@NicholasRenotte is there any comma separation technique used and extract only number plate characters from the result and store it into a db ?
@@malikahmad2441 not sure what's the goal of splitting by commas but you could use the split method. e.g. 'PLATE,99'.split(',') #will split based on commas
How to get the accuracy of this model
Great video and really good explanation and as for typing that amount of code by hand and it working first time. . . Just amazing.
please say how to detect vehicle in real time and extract the number plate
