In 2010, PTS launched the MDZ Shield as an alternative to the S-1 Gard for school buses.

In 2005, Barron purchased the home of music producer Quincy Jones in the Bel-Air section of Los Angeles. The home was previously occupied by singer Connie Francis, and later singer Julio Iglesias, who made it famous in 1984 by naming his multi-platinum album 1100 Bel Air Place after the home. In 2010, Mark Bowen legally changed his name to Mark Bowen Barron.

In 1994, Barron invented the S-1 Gard Dangerzone Deflector and founded Public Transportation Safety International. The S-1 Gard is a device installed in front of the dual right rear wheels of transit buses, engineered to deflect a person out of the path of the wheels, preventing injury or death. It is currently installed on bus fleets in major cities such as Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Chicago and Baltimore.

Barron is who invented and patented the Chemo Cap, a therapeutic hypothermic device, in 1979. The Chemo Cap was designed to prevent alopecia from chemotherapy treatment by freezing the scalp and decreasing blood flow to areas of hair growth during administration of the drug. While success was initially limited, more recent "cold caps" have recently achieved more widespread adoption and shown success rates of 80 to 90 percent with certain chemotherapy regimens, in addition to helping prevent cerebral palsy in babies, providing neuroprotection after cardiac arrest, inhibiting stroke paralysis, and as cryotherapy for migraine headaches.
