This project is crucial for security and control systems and involved five major steps: Localization, Gray Scale Conversion, Character Segmentation, Character Recognition, and Validation.We used various technologies to create a Python backend that processes license plates in these steps. The system localizes the number plate by cropping the number plate area from the whole car image, converts the image to grey scale(0's and 1's). Characters are segmented and individually identified to retrieve the license plate as a string. This string is then verified on the web, and based on validation results, instructions are provided to security officials. Show less

  During my third year, I developed Health Highway, a system designed to bridge the communication gap between rural areas and city hospitals. This project aimed to improve patient life expectancy by providing a single point of contact for all health-related services, including locating nearby hospitals, blood banks, diagnostic centers, and more. Additionally, it featured a BMI calculator, healthy lifestyle blogs, pregnancy tips, COVID-19 vaccine centers, live tracking of COVID-19 cases, and… Show more During my third year, I developed Health Highway, a system designed to bridge the communication gap between rural areas and city hospitals.

Additionally, it featured a BMI calculator, healthy lifestyle blogs, pregnancy tips, COVID-19 vaccine centers, live tracking of COVID-19 cases, and medical news and alerts.For my final project, I created MySpeech, a web conferencing system for individuals with speech and hearing impairments using ML. By implementing an American Sign Language detection system, we enabled real-time hand gesture recognition to predict and display English subtitles during web conferences, achieving an overall accuracy of 88.9%. This system can help 6% of the world population suffering from hearing impairment to connect with the rest of the world virtually. Show less
