Deer Park, TX, USA (August 19, 2019) – Aegex Technologies awarded two recipients aegex10 Intrinsically Safe Tablets during the Emergency Response Technology Showcase, August 15-16, in Deer Park, Texas.
Phillip Arroyo, assistant fire chief of the Deer Park Fire Department, and Chris Cullen in the EO/Rescue – Marine Group of the Houston Fire Department, each won an Aegex tablet after entering a drawing at the event. Aegex tablets are certified safe to use in hazardous area operations, so they enable first responders to communicate and share data in real time in potentially explosive environments.
The event, hosted by CS2, Inc., invited private and public emergency responders and agencies to view cutting-edge technologies that can improve emergency response efforts.

Aegex exhibited the aegex10 Intrinsically Safe Tablet and its its NexVu IoT Solution that consists of intrinsically safe sensors connected in portable, WiFi/LTE-enabled, customizable combinations to report myriad conditions surrounding an emergency. These solutions together allow responders and operators to bring appropriate applications to the scene and help them get a clear view of the contributing factors involved in the situation.
