License plate recognition for Homey

Use snapshots from a camera connected to Homey, and let Platerecognizer do AI based license plate recognition. For every plate the app detects, a flow will be triggered. The app will also provide vehicle type and region.

Privacy

The Homey app uses a cloud based license plate recognition service called Platerecognizer. Using the Platerecognizer service has privacy implications. Use at own risk. Read and understand your local privacy legislation, and the terms of use from Platerecognizer.

Performance

The free Platerecognizer service allows you to upload 1 or 2 images per second. The plate detection usually is ready within 1 to 3 seconds from uploading an image (via an action flowcard).

Test image

To make testing your flow easier, a test image is available as global image token. It has license plates of two cars and a motor cycle.
