(OTCBB:GVSS), a leading provider of video security surveillance solutions featuring the complete Samsung Electronics line of products, announced new and expanded projects wins for their GVI Samsung School Video Security Initiative. The projects include a new GVI Samsung video security solution for the Suncoast Polytechnical High School and a new order expanding the project for the Sarasota County School District.

The project for the Sarasota County School District video security program will raise the total number of installed GVI Samsung cameras in the district to over 2500. The new order also heralds the introduction of GVI’s new Samsung 40 inch, high resolution LCD security monitors, which are being installed to provide the Sarasota County School District with one of the most advanced large flat panel wide screen monitoring options in school video security.

The new project at Suncoast Polytechnical High School provides a complete video solution featuring GVI’s Samsung Electronics color dome cameras and Samsung 17 inch flat panel LCD monitors.

“GVI’s partnership with Samsung in the School Video Security Initiative is continuing to move ahead with leading products and a growing presence in this important, rapidly growing, high value market vertical,” said GVI Chairman Steven Walin. “New products, like our 40 inch Samsung LCD flat panel monitors, keep us at the forefront in providing effective, reliable easy to use security systems for schools and universities nationwide.”

The GVI sales rep partner for both projects is Southeast Security Products of Pompano Beach Florida, which represents GVI Samsung throughout the Southeast including Florida, Alabama, South and North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee and Southern Virginia.
