Ongoing Expansion with Top U.S. Healthcare Provider Demonstrates RAD's Growing Role in Modernizing Hospital and Campus Security
Detroit, Michigan--(Newsfile Corp. - April 17, 2025) - Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD-I), a subsidiary of Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (OTC Pink: AITX) (the "Company"), today announced that it has received another expansion order from a leading healthcare provider ranked among the top 25 in the United States. This latest order, consisting of three RIO™ 360 solar-powered mobile security towers, follows a series of deployments that began in April of 2024, which was expanded in July of 2024, then again in December of 2024. The client is now on track to surpass 55 RIO units ordered before the close of calendar year 2025.

Beyond RIO deployments, the client is actively engaged in discussions with RAD regarding additional solutions across its enterprise. These include the potential implementation of standalone ROSA™ units, the integration of SARA™, RAD's AI-powered command and control platform, and early-stage planning for ROAMEO™ Gen 4, RAD's mobile robotic security solution. This growing collaboration illustrates the client's deepening interest in leveraging RAD's full portfolio to strengthen security, improve operational efficiency, and reduce reliance on traditional guarding services.
One of the most promising applications currently underway is the client's use of RAD's ROSA units to monitor and manage activity in its walk-in lobbies. These lobbies, which serve as the public-facing entry points to hundreds of facilities across the country, are frequently impacted by incidents of vagrancy, loitering, and occasional vandalism. By deploying ROSA in these areas, the client is creating a consistent, always-present layer of security that can engage, deter, and notify in real time, without requiring costly on-site personnel.
This approach not only addresses a persistent security challenge but also represents a highly scalable model that could be replicated across the client's full footprint. Beyond the interior lobby use, ROSA is also being evaluated for select outdoor areas where a full RIO deployment may not be warranted. These exterior placements would allow the client to extend proactive coverage to parking areas, side entrances, and delivery zones, continuing to replace or reduce reliance on traditional guarding methods with RAD's AI-driven technology.
This new order reflects the healthcare provider's continued trust in RAD's ability to deliver effective, autonomous security solutions that meet the demands of high-traffic, complex environments. With each additional deployment, the client reinforces its commitment to adopting advanced technologies that improve facility security while reducing the strain on traditional guarding resources. RAD anticipates further orders from this client as additional locations evaluate and implement the RIO family of security solutions.
"This order highlights the rapid shift we're seeing across the healthcare industry," said Troy McCanna, RAD's Chief Security Officer. "Clients are no longer experimenting with AI-driven security, they're embracing it as a core part of their operations. It's exciting to see RAD becoming an integral piece of how major healthcare organizations approach safety and responsiveness."
In parallel with the expanding RIO deployments, the client continues to evaluate RAD’s SARA™ platform for broader implementation across its network. The multiple award-winning SARA, part of the Company’s AI-powered software suite, serves as the intelligent layer connecting RAD devices, enabling autonomous responses and streamlined incident management. As testing progresses, RAD expects SARA to play an increasing role in helping this client reduce dependency on human guarding while elevating situational awareness and response times.
Sitting atop a standard RIO 360 configuration are dual ROSA units. ROSA is a multiple award-winning, compact, self-contained, portable, security and communication solution that can be installed and activated in about 15 minutes. ROSA's AI-driven security analytics include human, firearm, vehicle detection, license plate recognition, responsive digital signage and audio messaging, and complete integration with RAD-I's software suite notification and autonomous response library. Two-way communication is optimized for cellular, including live video from ROSA's high-resolution, full-color, always-on cameras. RAD-I has published six Case Studies detailing how ROSA has helped eliminate instances of theft, trespassing and loitering at retail centers, hospital campuses, multi-family communities, car rental locations and construction sites across the country.
