    Imagine if this plate display could be driven by a low-end smartphone app running software that keeps GPS track of the vehicle;

    • When the vehicle is parked at home; it displays a decoy/vanity/decorative plate.
    • When the vehicle is on the road; at reasonable speeds it displays the “Default” Legal plate number…unless you signal it not to.
    • When the vehicle is speeding or near a known ALPR camera; it shifts the plate number to a randomly numbered decoy plate number.
    • When the vehicle is parked somewhere else; it chooses a random plate number and shifts that number every 1-2 hours at random odd intervals.
    • When you toggle a certain setting on your personal device; it just sticks to a random plate number or current plate for an hour or two. (So you can get out of sight before it shifts again, in case you’re being watched.)
