RONKONKOMA, N.Y., Oct. 27 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sentry Technology
Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: SKVY) announced today the second shipment of
its SentryVision(R) SmartTrack traveling CCTV systems for installation in Cape
Town, South Africa on The Metro Rail Network to monitor passengers at the
junction of bus, railway and taxi services. This order is for 7 additional
tracks at a new Metro Rail Network terminal after the successful installation
and evaluation of 3 tracks earlier this year. SmartTrack is an integral part
of an overall crime prevention and deterrence program including central
management of all video devices over a network. The SmartTrack system uses
patented technology to transmit video images from two pan, tilt and zoom
cameras traveling along an aluminum rail mounted on the ceiling or wall of a
passenger platform. The camera carriage travels at speeds of up to 13 feet
per second and provides unobstructed views of passenger activity that is not
possible with conventional camera systems.
"The use of SmartTrack to secure additional passenger railway platforms by
the Metro Rail Network validates the effectiveness of our traveling video
technology in the public transportation market," said Peter L. Murdoch,
President and CEO of Sentry Technology Corporation. "Our sales team has
carried this success to key U.S. prospects in the rail, bus, subway and
airport markets. We believe that SmartTrack will be a key component in many
public transportation, homeland security applications."
