I recently ran across this review. It is dated 2006. The device is (was) manufactured by Smart Earth Technologies, Inc.

The link in the review does not appear to be active.
Has anyone had any experience with this product or Smart Earth Techologies? Anyone aware or a similar product?
Of course, I am interested in this product to be able to "share digital pictures of my vehicle or attend car shows without publicly revealing my license plate information to the public".

Until recently, the only choice an enthusiast had was to modify their digital images using computer software, or to completely remove the license plate and reinstall it later—a pain in the rearend (no pun intended).
The team at Smart Earth Technologies (“SET”) recognized the need for privacy when automotive enthusiasts publish images of their vehicles on the Internet. Adopting existing technology, SET designed the Stealth Kit. The Stealth Kit is a bolt-on license plate frame that gives the enthusiast the power to make their license plate invisible at the flip of a switch inside the vehicle. We think this is an ideal solution to keep the license plate information private when taking pictures of the vehicle or displaying one’s vehicle at a car show or meet.

I am the owner of the patent for the products your are discussing. Smart Earth Technology (SET) licensed my patent for their "Stealth Kit". Unfortunately due to lack of funding and difficulties getting reliable suppliers to the kit components, they had to cease operations.
The good news is that I have decided to bite the bullet and invest the money to manufacture the product to a much higher degree than it ever has been. I call it the Eclipse Kit. Originally, I only manufactured the motorcycle version, but now I am improving its design while preparing to make the automobile version. It will have many new enhancements.
The only bad news I have is that we are still months away from having it available to sell.
If anyone is interested in getting one, you may email me at: michael@flashalert.com
By the way, I absolutely guarantee that no camera or any video device will 'see' through the lens when activated.

I think there's also some sprays that add a reflective layer. You can read a plate fine, but as soon as there's a flash you only see a solid white reflection. Don't know much about it, but I hear Canadians use it to jam photo-radar tickets.
