Vehicle logo recognition technology refers to a practical technology that uses digital images or video signal streams as the research object to obtain motor vehicle brand information through image processing and automatic recognition methods. Vehicle logo recognition technology mainly includes two parts: vehicle logo positioning and vehicle logo recognition. After the vehicle logo is accurately located, vehicle logo recognition is transformed into a target recognition problem. Specifically, for an image of a car, we must first accurately locate the area where the car logo is located, then identify the car logo area, and then determine the vehicle's manufacturer information.

Car logos refer to the logos of various car brands, and these logos often become representatives of automobile companies. The signs of a car include: the car's trademark or factory logo, product label, engine model and factory number, vehicle model and factory number, vehicle identification number, etc.
