Thumbs up

I finally finished with company designing speed cameras after 6 months of employment. Very happy to be walking away from them but I learnt so much from them it was unbelievable.
At least I come away having designed a flash unit that will be installed around the country. It will be very good for my portfolio.
New Year. New job.

Was a good boy to. didnt have an office fling

So you are the man to advise if them so called "stealth" plates priced at £110.00 a set ( gulp )!! and supposdly not only immune to any gatso flash photography, but any possible follow up photo enhancment software used, as sold by www.ca-automotive.co.uk are any good or not ??!! or even the photoblocker number plate spray sold by www.phantomplate.com is as effevtive as the many on line tv / press testimonials say it is ??!!

c`mom mate, looking for that diffinative answer ??!!!!!!!

cheers,
john...

I loved the reaction i got when I told people I designed speed cameras its always a funny reaction.
I didnt work for Gatso so I dont know what plates will work for their cameras.
But the latest test that we did was a total flop. dark colour cars are a problem cuz the photo is only valid if you can see the colour of the car.
Black cars are good cuz the lazer speed detectors dont work.
And most important of all how not to do things.

If I got rid of all right angles on my scoob and paint my car dull black, will I be immune? Any tips on how to reduce the exhaust temperature from my car?

edit: If I lower my car, would the radar miss me too?
