This is a known issue ( #1 ) and actually not directly an issue of CarCV. The problem is in JavaANPR, the library we use for number plate detection.

It fails to recognize plates in several images I know of, thus returning null, which you see in numberplate-text. I'm afraid there's not much you can do about this, apart from:

a) giving CarCV/JavaANPR a different image (of the same car) and try to run it again b) fixing JavaANPR to detect more plates c) migrating CarCV to a different (read: better) detection library
