Purpose
Accessible parking slots are often occupied by unauthorized vehicles, leaving persons with disabilities without a place to park. This thesis project automates PWD slot enforcement by recognizing registered license plates and controlling a physical entry barrier.
Description
A camera feed runs through YOLOv8 vehicle and license-plate detectors, and EasyOCR reads each plate against a SQLite registry of authorized PWD vehicles. A Tkinter dashboard styled with ttkbootstrap lets staff manage registrations and monitor multiple cameras, while the recognition unit — deployable on Windows or a Raspberry Pi 5 — signals an Arduino UNO R4 over serial to raise a servo-driven barrier and update its LED matrix display.
