HI all,

I am using openalpr to open my gate, but curiously, this plate is not picking up the number 2, any idea why?

 R5GNH
 R54GNH
 R54GNH
 R54GNH
 R54GNH
 R54GNH
 54GNH

Cheers

Steve

Steve, u mast to make better UK OCR libery and it will better

what u make in config file ? can u post here ?

Valdimar,

Hi do you mean in the alprd.conf eg

daemon]

; country determines the training dataset used for recognizing plates. Valid values are: us, eu
country = us

Due to gb now being supported, can the country in the conf file can now be gb ?

country = gb

please confirm

Thanks

Yes you can use gb in alprd.conf

I also have this in the other .conf


; Specify the path to the runtime data directory
runtime_dir = /usr/share/openalpr/runtime_data


ocr_img_size_percent = 1.33333333
state_id_img_size_percent = 2.0

; Calibrating your camera improves detection accuracy in cases where vehicle plates are captured at a steep angle
; Use the openalpr-utils-calibrate utility to calibrate your fixed camera to adjust for an angle
; Once done, update the prewarp config with the values obtained from the tool
prewarp =

; detection will ignore plates that are too large.  This is a good efficiency technique to use if the
; plates are going to be a fixed distance away from the camera (e.g., you will never see plates that fill
; up the entire image
max_plate_width_percent = 100
max_plate_height_percent = 100

; detection_iteration_increase is the percentage that the LBP frame increases each iteration.
; It must be greater than 1.0.  A value of 1.01 means increase by 1%, 1.10 increases it by 10% each time.
; So a 1% increase would be ~10x slower than 10% to process, but it has a higher chance of landing
; directly on the plate and getting a strong detection
detection_iteration_increase = 1.1

; The minimum detection strength determines how sure the detection algorithm must be before signaling that
; a plate region exists.  Technically this corresponds to LBP nearest neighbors (e.g., how many detections
; are clustered around the same area).  For example, 2 = very lenient, 9 = very strict.
detection_strictness = 3

; The detection doesn't necessarily need an extremely high resolution image in order to detect plates
; Using a smaller input image should still find the plates and will do it faster
; Tweaking the max_detection_input values will resize the input image if it is larger than these sizes
; max_detection_input_width/height are specified in pixels
max_detection_input_width = 1280
max_detection_input_height = 720

; detector is the technique used to find license plate regions in an image.  Value can be set to
; lbpcpu    - default LBP-based detector uses the system CPU
; lbpgpu    - LBP-based detector that uses Nvidia GPU to increase recognition speed.
; lbpopencl - LBP-based detector that uses OpenCL GPU to increase recognition speed.  Requires OpenCV 3.0
; morphcpu  - Experimental detector that detects white rectangles in an image.  Does not require training.
detector = lbpcpu

; If set to true, all results must match a postprocess text pattern if a pattern is available.
; If not, the result is disqualified.
must_match_pattern = 0

; Bypasses plate detection.  If this is set to 1, the library assumes that each region provided is a likely plate area.
skip_detection = 0

max_plate_angle_degrees = 15

ocr_min_font_point = 6

; Minimum OCR confidence percent to consider.
postprocess_min_confidence = 65

; Any OCR character lower than this will also add an equally likely
; chance that the character is incorrect and will be skipped.  Value is a confidence percent
postprocess_confidence_skip_level = 80

Cheers

Steve
