You should look gabor filter. You have to find best filter parametersfor detection plate character, and than you can optain all platesafter filtering. Than you can use standart morp. operations on theimage.

License Plate Localization

[OpenCV] License Plate Localization

After detecting edges, you should apply morphological close operation. However,you should select kernel size considering the plate size. After that, you shouldapply connected component algorithm and filter very big and very small sizeobjects. Hence, the remaining objects are plate candidates which you can detectcharacters for each candidate.

Merging 2 Image

Hi,
a simple solution is:
You could initialize a new picture with the required dimensions, andcopy the data line for line, one after one from both pictures into thenew one.

Examplecode:
//Let's assume img1 and img2 are your 1024x768 grayscale-images of
// type IplImage

IplImage *combined = new IplImage;
CvSize size;
size.width=2048;
size.height=768;
combined = cvCreateImage(size, IPL_DEPTH_8U, 1);
for (int i = 0; i < (size.height-1); i++) { memcpy(&img3->imageData[i*img3->widthStep],&img1->imageData[i*img1->widthStep], img1->widthStep);
memcpy(&img3->imageData[i*img3->widthStep+img1->widthStep],&img2->imageData[i*img2->widthStep], img2->widthStep);
}
