Automated Toll Tax System with Reviewing E-Challan using OCR Technology

– A toll is a charge or tax for a privilege, especially for expressways or some roads. Electronic toll collection aims at eliminating the delay caused by toll collection process. There has been a problem during rush hours especially in the mornings, evenings and on public holidays of movement of vehicles passing the through the highways due to the time consumed on manual collection of toll tax for each vehicle passing through the toll plaza. The aim of this project is to develop a system which detects the approaching vehicle automatically. When the vehicle approaches the toll plaza the vehicle number plate gets captured by the camera placed at the toll plazas and it is automatically processed and the system checks for the payment and challan and opens the gate , we have also provided a system which checks whether vehicle has any pending challan or not.
