Brigade Electronics USA Showcasing Multiple Efforts at Two Different Expos
EMS World Expo
Brigade will show its newest vehicle safety technology for emergency service fleets at EMS World Expo 2026 in Orlando, from Sept. 28-Oct. 2.
EMS World Expo brings together thousands of professionals from the emergency medical services field and is one of the industry’s top events for education, networking and exhibitions.
The 2026 event at the Orange County Convention Center will offer over 200 educational sessions in nine learning tracks, plus a large exhibition of the latest emergency medical services equipment and technology.
Brigade will show how smart vehicle safety systems can help ambulance, fire, rescue, and other emergency fleets improve visibility, lower collision risks, and better protect crews, patients and other road users.
Emergency vehicles often work in tough conditions, such as crowded areas, tight spaces and high-pressure situations where drivers must stay aware of everything around them.
Brigade’s safety technology helps drivers spot vulnerable road users, obstacles, and activity in blind spots. The solutions include camera monitoring systems, 360-degree cameras, smart detection systems, reversing and warning alarms, and telematics.
For emergency fleets, these systems give drivers better visibility when moving large vehicles in tight spaces, support safer reversing and make it easier to spot pedestrians, cyclists, and other hazards.
Digital recording and camera systems also give operators useful footage for reviewing incidents, training and managing their fleets.
“Emergency service vehicles need to operate quickly and safely in environments that can change from one moment to the next,” said Brigade CEO Corey Heniser. “Drivers need to maintain awareness of everything happening around what can often be a large vehicle, while simultaneously managing the pressures associated with emergency response. The right safety technology can provide an additional layer of support by improving visibility and helping drivers identify potential hazards before they develop into incidents. EMS World Expo gives us a great opportunity to meet emergency services professionals from across the US, understand the challenges their fleets face and demonstrate the technologies available to help make those vehicles safer.”
EMS World Expo is for professionals across the prehospital and emergency response community, including paramedics, EMTs, medical directors, EMS and fire chiefs, emergency managers, firefighters and rescue workers.
Along with its large conference program, the event has one of the industry's biggest EMS-focused exhibit halls. Visitors can explore and compare the latest equipment and technology for the sector.

TRANSform & Expo
Brigade will present its newest vehicle safety technology for public transportation fleets at APTA TRANSform & EXPO 2026 in Chicago, from Oct. 4-7.
APTA TRANSform & EXPO, organized by the American Public Transportation Association, brings together public transportation professionals, transit agencies, manufacturers, suppliers and industry leaders to explore new technology, innovation and developments shaping the future of mobility.
The event will cover many topics affecting the sector, such as safety, security, new technology, sustainable transportation, better mobility, zero-emission vehicles and passenger experience.
Brigade will show how smart vehicle safety technology can help transit operators improve driver visibility, lower collision risks, and better protect passengers, pedestrians, cyclists and other vulnerable road users.
Bus and transit vehicles often work in complex road environments, such as busy city centers, residential areas, transportation hubs and places with lots of pedestrians and cyclists.
Because of their size and design, these vehicles can have large blind spots, so good visibility and hazard detection are essential for fleet safety.
Brigade’s commercial vehicle safety technology helps drivers stay more aware of their surroundings and helps operators lower risks across their fleets. The solutions include camera monitoring systems, 360-degree cameras, smart detection systems, reversing and warning alarms, and telematics.
These technologies improve visibility around large passenger vehicles, help drivers with low-speed maneuvers and reversing, and give extra warnings when vulnerable road users or other hazards are nearby. Digital recording systems can also provide transit operators with useful footage for incident investigation, driver training, insurance and wider fleet management.
“Public transportation vehicles operate in environments where drivers are constantly interacting with pedestrians, cyclists, other vehicles and passengers,” said Brigade CEO Corey Heniser. “Improving visibility around these vehicles is therefore an important part of reducing risk and supporting safer transit operations. Technology can give drivers an additional level of awareness, particularly around blind spots and areas of the vehicle that are difficult to see using mirrors alone. APTA TRANSform & EXPO is a great opportunity for us to meet transportation professionals from across North America, learn more about the challenges their fleets face and demonstrate how the latest safety technology can support safer public transportation.”
Brigade will also talk with visitors at its stand about how connected and smart technology can help transit operators use vehicle and safety data more effectively.
As fleet technology advances, operators can now combine video, vehicle data and safety alerts to get a clearer view of how vehicles are running and where risks might be.
AAPTA TRANSform & EXPO is expected to draw public transportation professionals from across the industry and will showcase new technologies and solutions for the next generation of public transit.
