Number plate blurring

Automatic and accurate blurring of license plate numbers in images to protect privacy and comply with data regulations

Overview

License plate blurring is the process of obscuring the license plates of vehicles in images so they become unreadable. Such a feature can be really useful, especially as online privacy is becoming a concern for many. It can be used to prevent the identification of vehicles by automatically blurring their license plates.

The Number plate anonymizer is an advanced ML model, designed to protect privacy and comply with data protection regulations. It efficiently detects vehicle registration plates within images and automatically applies a precise blur filter, rendering the plate numbers and characters illegible, while preserving the integrity of the surrounding content.
