Show HN: Omni-LPR – A multi-protocol license plate recognition server

1 habedi0 0 9/1/2025, 2:15:10 PM

Hi everyone,

I've made an open-source server in Python (called Omni-LPR) that exposes automatic license plate recognition (or ALPR) as a toolbox for LLMs and AI agents. It can also be used as a standalone microservice.

Here are some of its features:

- Installable as a Python package: `pip install omni-lpr`.

- Self-hostable for 100% local and private inference.

- Exposes tools via a native MCP endpoint for agents and a standard REST API.

- Includes examples for direct integration with tools like LM Studio.

- Hardware-accelerated backends for CPU, OpenVINO, and CUDA for faster performance.
