Abstract: In this paper we have conducted a survey of most authentic techniques of license plate detection of a vehicle and an automatic gate control system that will increase convenience and security at entrance of all the important places that require protection and Security. Here the gate will work automatically without the need of human beings and also the system will be able to recognize license plates from vehicles at the entrance gate and decide whether to let vehicles inside or not. The system consists of Raspberry pi along with a video camera that captures video frames which include an image of the vehicle license plate and processes them.
