Detroit, Michigan, July 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD), a subsidiary of Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc., (the “Company”) (OTCPK:AITX), today expressed strong support for Kansas Governor Laura Kelly's and Missouri Governor Mike Parson recent vetoes of legislation that would have limited school safety funding to a single company.

“We commend Governors Kelly and Parson for their decisions to promote fair competition and ensure that schools have the freedom to choose the best safety solutions for their unique needs,” said Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO of AITX and RAD. “These decisions foster a fair marketplace, driving innovation and competition, which ultimately benefits the end users, our schools, and students. At RAD, we are committed to providing innovative and reliable firearm detection solutions that enhance public safety. By encouraging a competitive environment, we can continually improve our technologies and offer a broader range of effective solutions to meet the diverse security needs of educational institutions.”

The vetoed measure included criteria, such as SAFETY Act Designation, that only one company, ZeroEyes, currently meets, which raised concerns about limiting competition and creating a de facto no-bid contract scenario. The governors’ action ensures that schools are not restricted to a single provider, thereby fostering competition and innovation in the market.

On May 30, 2024, RAD announced enhanced gun detection technology and its initiative aimed at achieving SAFETY Act Designation.
