Recognize license plates using fine-tuned yolov8, OCR and IP camera
Hey, just a work related project I made, which could be open sourced :D If you're looking for an example on how to use/fine-tune yolov8, I feel like taking a look at this repo and reading the README could help you get up to speed (also linked some nice refs)! This is actually a full rewrite of a proprietary project I made (and documented on my site) like a year ago, will do some finishing touches (write blog post about it, mark the old version deprecated, record a tutorial on how to set it up on an Ubuntu server, etc, etc) in the following month, but felt like sharing it now, cuz I…
In plain words
This project uses fine-tuned YOLOv8 and OCR to recognize license plates from IP camera feeds. Built as a work-related tool, it demonstrates how to fine-tune YOLOv8 for computer vision tasks, with documented setup instructions and example code. The core AI and web server components are open source under AGPL, while the proprietary client handles business logic and database integration.

Also, the client contains only the business logic, all of the fun ai/web server stuff is fully open under AGPL-3.0 (and an example client without the business logic is available ... in rust btw xdd).
