License Plate EXtractor is a software which extract vehicles license plates. No neural networks, SVM, or other sophisticated algorithms are involved at this stage (for now).

This version is based on Chris Dahms version available here

What I did was to copy his repository and extract the code which do the detection of plates (his code contains also a character recognition system which worked pretty bad for me). After that I did some refactoring.

To use it:

python Extraction.py --image car.png
