Comments on Electronic License Plates For California By Smart Plate Mobile
Another science fiction prediction come to life! (Read
the complete story)
| "As long as it can't be hacked, like everything else in these new cars can be." (Dewtey 9/11/2013 2:32:08 PM) |
| "If you take a look at the patent from Smart Plate Mobile, another use of the display is to show directly on the 'plate' information like the current speed of the vehicle, owner's name and address and so forth." (Bill Christensen 9/11/2013 6:11:28 PM) |
| "I was also going to mention that the patent was filed in May of 2011 - why doesn't the patent office consider books like Suarez' as prior art? " (Bill 9/11/2013 6:17:16 PM) |
| "Do you really want your address displayed to everyone?" (Dewtey 9/13/2013 5:15:58 PM) |
| "I think that the license plate will display personal information when commanded to do so by a passing patrol officer. But you're right, if a police officer could see it, then everyone else could." (Bill Christensen 9/13/2013 7:49:40 PM) |
| "And if a patrol car can issue the command, someone can intercept it and duplicate it. See a car you want? trigger the license plate to tell you where they park at night..." (Dewtey 9/14/2013 12:45:21 PM) |
