By
Rhea_Karty
Toasted golden, schmeared with insight. Top of the rack.
Summary
PlateShapez is a research tool for generating adversarially perturbed license plate overlays on vehicle images to confuse AI license plate readers used by law enforcement and retailers. It creates structured datasets with reproducibility, transparency, and ethical guardrails, featuring both CLI and Python API interfaces for generating small, hardly-noticeable random gaussian shapes that can disrupt automated license plate recognition systems.
