MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. / Oct 09, 2023 / Business Wire / Knightscope, Inc. [Nasdaq: KSCP] (“Knightscope” or the “Company”), a leading developer of autonomous security robots and blue light emergency communication systems, today announces new purchase orders received from four existing customers – two cities and two universities – seeking to grow and improve their emergency communications systems.

Advocates, individuals, and government officials at all levels must do everything they can to ensure that schools are safe places for students, teachers, and other employees. A university in Delaware is expanding their 15-phone emergency communication system with 3 K1 Blue Light Emergency Phones. A Southern California university added Knightscope’s K1B Maintenance Plan to ensure that their equipment is in the best possible operational condition at all times. Both customers recognize public safety across the entire education system in the United States is essential and have taken steps to fortify their programs.

An Atlanta suburb with a 23-phone system added a Knightscope K1 Call Box to their program, while the Office of Mental Health in a large New York city added one K1 Call Box to its 8 Call Box system. Cities understand that the benefits of installing emergency phones include eliminating the need to find a number to call during an emergency; location tracking so that emergency personnel know exactly where to dispatch help; and to supplement spotty cell coverage and dead batteries often contributing to failed communications in time of need.

Customers with such strong, expanding portfolios confirm the effectiveness of these programs and serve to help the Company’s continuing efforts to execute on its growth plan. Other recommendations for improving public safety with emergency communications may be found in Knightscope’s blog here.
