I'll give you the answer I gave somebody else when they asked about automatic numperplate recognition (ANPR):

"Unfortunately, you aren't going to be given the code to do this as this is a hugely complicated area, with commercial systems going for huge amounts of money. Typically ANPR systems make use of several stages to identify the number plate, these stages being:

1. Plate location. This step is responsible for identifying where the plate is in a picture.
2. Plate translation. Orienting and sizing the image, compensating for skew.
3. Image normalisation. Adjusting the brightness/contrast of the image.
4. Segmentation. Finding the characters themselves (i.e. removing items such as flags).
5. Optical Character Recognition.

Now, ANPR requires cameras to take pictures at very high speeds, and requires the processing to take place very quickly, which means that .NET is probably not going to be the most appropriate choice for processing the image (which typically requires sub-second processing). Typically these systems are written in C++ or C, are highly optimised and make use of image processing techniques such as edge detection and sharpening filters."

Now, just because you aren't going to be given the code doesn't mean that it's experimental. Police forces around the world are using this successfully right now - and courts accept this as evidence; something that wouldn't happen if they judged it experimental. More importantly, you can't judge successfully whether or not it's beyond the OPs experience - he may be a genius just looking for a little nudge.
