Exer7.5: Optical Character Recognition part 2

In this exercise, we were tasked to detect what characters are present in the given set of plate number images using tesseract.

Before using tesseract, the images used had to be preprocessed first to ensure that the tesseract only reads/detects the plate number and not the rest of the image.

This is done to all the given images. It can be seen that the results are not always right. The results that tesseract gives highly depends on how the region of interest is preprocessed.
