Abstract：License plate recognition has a very important role in intelligent transportation and car park management. License plate recognition and the processing speed directly affect their applications. There is higher processing speed requirement especially in the rapid capture of the highway. This paper uses conventional image processing technique and template matching algorithm instead of the complex image processing algorithms. It proposes a set of quick and easy license plate recognition algorithm, which can greatly increase the license plate recognition processing speed, especially for the case that need to quickly identify license plate applications. At last，it uses MATLAB for the implementation of the algorithm and validation.
