Electronic Toll Collection System using OCR and SNMP Technology

Abstract — every day, there are huge amount of vehicles passing through Toll Gate Stations. The payment is done automatically. This system uses camera for capturing the images of the vehicles number plate. SNMP technology is used for converting the captured image into the text and the toll would be cut from the user’s account and then the gate is opened. The system is divided into the design of three modules, Vehicle Module and the Central Database Module, Tollgate station. The three modules communicate via SNMP Technology. The information of the vehicles is already stored on the database, using this information vehicles are identified. Data information is also easily exchanged between the motorists and toll authorities, thereby enabling a more efficient toll collection by reducing traffic. Key words: OCR, SNMP I
