3. Data record and end-user application Besides the characters of the vehicle plate, CARMEN® also returns plenty of additional information, such as an image with the recognized plate(s) and the confidence level assigned to each character as well as the whole plate. Once all license plate data is saved to a database, the data record serves as input to the end-user’s business logic. Automated number plate recognition may be a key component of vehicle access control, traffic and toll enforcement and many other applications.
