Project summary

The project aimed to develop effective technology that could, in due course, deter persistent disqualified drivers from reoffending using new electronic monitoring technology. The technology, comprising an ankle worn tag and managing software, sought to identify someone driving a vehicle on a public road.

At a later stage the project trialled these tags on those who have committed driving offences and those who have been caught driving while disqualified. The trial sought to demonstrate that technology can make detection of driving speedy and certain and so when applied to disqualified drivers could deter most offenders.

The funding was used to test the technology on volunteers who will help demonstrate the reliability of the tags worn and the managing software that collects and submits the data.

Spot On Creative is a Northants-based creative team who have the hard-earned skills, expertise and industry knowledge that only come from having worked for years in advertising. It’s all managed by Lynne Dickens who has over 20 years’ experience in marketing communications, and ten years in website design and build, and creative team project management.

Lynne is also a qualified art historian and has some expertise in curating fine art exhibitions and producing all of the catalogues, posters and supporting material to create a successful event.

All the guys in our team have worked for one-man bands, SMEs and large blue-chip multinationals in just about every sector, field and industry. We can come up with great ideas, superb design and copy, and exceptional photography for anything from websites to email campaigns, branding to brochures – and everything in between.

And the beauty of Spot On Creative is that we’re big in creativity, experience and knowledge, but small in overheads and invoices. So we’re a much more sensible and affordable option for you than a larger advertising agency or marketing company.
