    This document describes steps to detect license plates in images using MATLAB: 1. It reads an input color image, converts it to grayscale, and performs dilation and erosion to remove noise. 2. It processes edges horizontally and vertically to detect lines in the image, and plots the resulting histograms. 3. It applies low-pass filters and dynamic thresholding to the histograms to isolate the license plate region. 4. The region of interest is extracted and displayed, with the detected license plate outlined.
