DETROIT – Mobile/wireless technologies are becoming

increasingly imperative to effective implementation of public safety services.

On September 14th at 6 p.m. the Detroit Chapter of Mobile Monday Michigan, a

subsidiary of the Mobile Technology Association of Michigan, will explore this

topic at an event hosted by TechTown Detroit.

During this program Mobile Monday Detroit will present

Michigan-based experts who will provide the perspective of the safety services

end-user, as well as the technology service provider to showcase what is

already being done, as well as additional opportunities for those interested in

exploring this technology sector. Speakers for the evening will include:

Michael Bouchard, Sheriff, Oakland County

Mary Harris, Sales Executive, Salamander Technologies

Though wireless technologies such as the ubiquitous radio

and mobile ticketing solutions are common, public safety technology today is

increasingly utilizing ever more sophisticated technologies to meet the needs

of today’s safety service organizations. Technologies that enable data sharing

across disparate public safety communications systems, as well as sensors and

cameras that improve awareness or transmit biometrics and location data, are

critical to reducing injury and loss of life, as are many other uses of

mobile/wireless technologies.
