Cities Seeking Citizen Security Can Apply to Participate in Proxity's Beta Testing Program.Business Editors & High Tech Writers NEW ORLEANS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 3, 2002 Proxity Digital Networks, Inc. (PinkSheets:PDNW), notes that many cities are researching higher levels of security for their citizens. Proxity recommends that these cities apply early so as to be part of Proxity's beta test A test of new or revised hardware or software that is performed by users at their facilities under normal operating conditions. Beta testing follows alpha testing. Vendors of packaged software often offer their customers the opportunity of beta testing new releases or versions, and the of their On Alert system. The On Alert system is being developed to detect and pinpoint the precise location from where a gun is fired using advanced integrated technology, automatically alerting law enforcement authorities via laptop, hand-held devices or through standard dispatch. Joseph A. Grace, Jr., President/COB, Proxity Digital Networks, "Cities should see the benefits a technology like this could provide. Their citizens know exactly how vulnerable they are and want more protection. This product, when deployed, should assist in protecting our citizens from terrorist activity as well as provide a method to help curb violent crime in our urban centers. Current developmental programming of On Alert will provide significant critical information including the type/caliber of the gun being fired. Subsequent versions of this product will be offered to the U.S. armed forces for use on vehicles and by foot soldiers. Such a product potentially could also be a great lifesaver for troops fighting in urban areas. We encourage cities to contact us and apply to participate in our beta testing (programming) beta testing - Testing a pre-release (potentially unreliable) version of a piece of software by making it available to selected users. This term derives from early 1960s terminology for product cycle checkpoints, first used at IBM but later standard throughout the program."
