Automated License Plate Recognition for Non-Helmeted Motor Riders Using YOLO and OCR

One of the leading causes of serious injuries in motorcycle accidents is the failure to wear a helmet, pressing the need for effective measures to encourage riders to use helmets. To stop these frequent violations of business regulations, regular observation is necessary. The proposed system is for detecting traffic violations in India related to riding motorcycles without hel-mets. The system utilizes deep learning-based object detection using YOLO and OCR techniques to automatically detect non-helmet riders and extract license plate numbers. The proposed system aims to improve efficiency and accuracy in detecting violations by automating the process and reducing the need for manpower. The system involves three levels of object detection: person and motorcycle/moped, helmet, and license plate. OCR is used to extract the license plate number, and all techniques are subject to predefined conditions and constraints. The system is designed to operate on video input to ensure high-speed execution, and it intends to offer a complete solution for both detection of helmet and extracting the license plate number.
