Maker Faire Detroit 2010
Developing a Digital License Plate
Anderson Theater Saturday 11:30 AM - 12:00 PM
Smart Plate (SP) is a San Francisco based innovation company
that is developing automotive technology in partnership with the CA
State DMV and State Legislators. The company is in the process
of changing the way companies interact with government agencies.
SP is pioneering a Public Private Partnership (P3) model with the
state of CA, which allows government agencies to rapidly explore
innovative technologies to serve the state’s most pressing problems –
revenue generation, government workflow efficiencies, etc.
SP’s Digital Electronic License Plate technology is a dynamic
license plate designed to act as an alternate to traditional metal
license plates. The device has the ability to display personal
messaging, and public safety broadcasts (AMBER alerts, real-time
traffic) while vehicles are stopped for 4 or more seconds. When
vehicles are in motion, the device display behaves like a normal
license plate displaying only vehicle identification and registration
information. This technology has the potential to create revenue
generating partnerships between state governments, advertisers
and motorists.
SP’s creative technology and innovative business model is at the
forefront of creating a business environment that spurs ingenuity
between the automotive technology sector and the government.
