The open-source hardware development platform Arduino has been growing in recent years. Nowadays, the Arduino platform became one of the important parts in remote control and monitor of electrical devices. This paper aims to propose an application of digital image processing along with Arduino, which can be useful in car-parking place to be more secure. Arduino will detect the car and take a picture for its plat and send it to the system. Then, system applies digital image processing technique in the image. Different algorithms are incorporated in system such as segmentation, normalization, localization, orientation and optical character recognition (OCR) which analyze certain features in image and predicts car plate numbers. Afterwards the resulting data are compared against records in a stored database.
