  1. Check out What’s New in Technology to Keep Up

At the Canadian Transit Show you can get direct access to the leading technology and solutions for the transit industry. Over 60,000 square feet of products, vehicles and services from manufacturers and suppliers from Canada and around the world will be presented in Vancouver Convention Center. The Seon team will be joining our parent company Safe Fleet on the trade show floor exhibiting together (booths #818 and #814) to present an entire suite of solutions for transit safety.

Here is what you can expect to see at our joint booth:

If you are looking for a cost-efficient video surveillance solution that will support growing security needs of your fleet, check out Seon’s new 16-camera hybrid surveillance system. It’s the top-of-the-line surveillance solution that allows recording both standard resolution analog and high-definition IP cameras for more video coverage. It will help you preserve your existing camera investment and let you upgrade to the new IP technology as your budget allows.

Another new product that we’ll bring to the show is inView 360 – an around vehicle monitoring system that eliminates deadly blind spots with a 360 degree bird’s eye view. Unlike traditional back-up cameras or mirror technology, inView 360 improves pedestrian safety and helps prevent collisions.

Our combined booth presence with Safe Fleet will help us better answer all your questions about transit safety and find a solution suitable to your needs.

By attending the Welcome Reception and conference meetings, you can demonstrate your expertise and raise your profile in the industry, as well as uncover different approaches for your work strategy. Even showing up earlier before the start of sessions and workshops might help meet new interesting people and exchange opinions.
