Randy Baker, Linear/OSCO Product Marketing Manager, stated that, "Parking gates without electronic non-contact safety equipment represent a significant potential risk. Risk and exposure for operators and dealers is particularly high in environments with heavy pedestrian traffic, especially where there are children or bicyclists. Offering integrated SmartGate units into our barrier gate products raises the bar on safety standards Safety standards are standards designed to ensure the safety of products, activities or processes, etc. They may be advisory or compulsory and are normally laid down by an advisory or regulatory body that may be either voluntary or statutory. in the parking gate environment." In January 2006, Magnetic Automation Corp., the U.S. unit of the Magnetic Autocontrol Group, one of the world's largest manufacturers of barrier gates headquartered in Germany with operations in the U.S., Brazil, India, Malaysia, China and Australia, joined Invisa's OEM Program.

Stefan Tea, General Manager, Magnetic Automation, "Magnetic has consistently been proactive in the area of gate safety. We believe that integrating the SmartGate non-contact safety system into our best gate product lines makes a powerful statement to our distribution chain while at the same time greatly enhancing our risk management strategy. We want everyone from our distributors & dealers right down to the ultimate owner/operators of our gates to have the opportunity to purchase the safest possible Magnetic gate products available." "The enhanced risk management position we achieve, by making our SmartGate equipped gate lines the standard first offering at virtually all sales opportunities, is a valuable added bonus of the Invisa OEM program. Enlightened gate manufacturers and prominent powered closure industry leaders consistently strive for the best possible safety standards for our products. Magnetic Automation is once again leading that charge by integrating Invisa's SmartGate safety system into our gate products," concluded Mr. Tea. Invisa's line of SmartGate safety equipment is the only electronic non-contact safety system designed to provide an invisible field that moves with and precedes the gate arm. If the gate arm is coming down on a pedestrian, bicycle, motorcycle, car or other vehicle, the gate arm is signaled to stop and reverse before any contact has been made to avoid injury and damage. Steve Michael, Invisa's acting President, stated, "We believe that an industry-wide adoption of our safety product will be driven by industry leaders, such as OSCO and Magnetic, that publicly acknowledge the higher risk of parking gates to pedestrians. As manufacturers incorporate our safety product as original equipment in their parking gates and recommend that their dealers and customers prevent injuries to pedestrians and reduce their potential liability, the bar for safety is being raised. We consider the public announcements by OSCO and Magnetic to be strong indicators of a market and a safety standard going through a significant change."
