debruyn moved their home and their company from don mills to the bloomington road in 1969 the busy highway was little more than a path the company was called detronics and up until then the father and son had been operating out of their basement in don mills we knew we couldnt do this forever robert declared so we started to look for a place we could both live in and work from because we werent sure what the future had in store a native of holland robert worked there for philips arriv ing in canada in 1951 where he got a job with an american com pany called philco the ex perience he gained from his background in both companies led him to work with motorola a major manufacturer of car sound systems we built 97 per cent of all the special test equipment and fix tures for them robert explains the debruyns went on to service ge philco and general motors in oshawa working on specializ ed radio equipment some of their projects being oneof items we found ourselves doing a lot of engineering and taking the bugs out of designs he says designing rather than building became their main thrust which in turn involved a high percen tage of research one project robert is particularly pleased with is the portable lane control system a traffic signal on wheels which can be programm ed to control traffic automatical ly hours a day the units are linked by radio can be controlled by one person manually and adjusted to suit conditions wherever they are us ed they are meant to replace flagmen on the construction site robert explains some of the units had been brought in from europe where problems related to cold and wet weather had made them unreliable we built a better unit and we have a patent on it he notes when we inherited the device we thought it had a great future nevertheless the company is having trouble convincing governments of its value we are still waiting for north america to wake up maintains robert last year between the united states and canada over 200 flagmen were killed on the job there are over 50 of the units in use in british columbia he points out that the ministry of transportation and com munications in ontario has been considering the portable lane control system for years un fortunately there is no money for safety one of the reasons for this he believes is that everyone is frightened of lawsuits a pro blem he feels is something of a red herring robert notes that whether a company uses the lane control units or flagmen the trick is to slow traffic well in advance of the construction area and the com pany now represents a manufac turer of portable warning signs which can be erected in advance of the site the heavy duty signs are highly visible and durable as well as being easy to transport from place to place they are currently in use by ontario hydro and are being considered by bell telephone detronics has also produced boards for the backs of hydro trucks featuring flashing lights and arrows which can be ad justed to point in both directions these are used when the trucks have to stop in awkward places giving clear warning to other traffic the company has developed heavy duty plastic stop signs and flagmen signs with flashing lights and also makes the big ar row boards on the don valley parkway which are controlled by a micro processor the boards are not recognized by the ministry of transport which is frustrating to robert dealing with government is an unfair con test he maintains i l v f k s l i f i y n i v r k s i i v i take atkinson college courses in markham degree credit courses will

beautiful forest landscape in oils by french canadian artist langevin which can be seen at the gallery was a birthday pre sent from wanda to gary in 1974 the picture was signed on the back for the
