at the Las Vegas International Truck Show,... IVS's technology was demonstrated at:
* Mack Trucks for the heavy duty applications; * Hewlett Packard for the light vehicle application,
The demonstration consisted of a live, real-time monitoring of a truck travelling through British Columbia, we were in contact with the driver by cellular phone, and the audience(s) could watch the performance parameters of the truck on a large computer screen while we instructed the driver to adjust his gas, braking, etc.
The demonstration(s) were very successful, and we received some very strong interest in the technology. At the tradeshow, it was obvious that the industry is quickly heading to embrace this technology, and at this time, there is no other product available offering the comprehensive features of IVS.
Both market applications (heavy and light duty) were very well received. Our relationship with Mack is very strong, and they are anxious to incorporate our technology, in fact Mack was actively marketing the relationship by hosting the demonstration at their booth, and handing out information sheets and demo diskettes.
Also, there were some automotive journalists at the demos, and I suspect we will get some coverage in some truck industry magazines in the near future.
