ROAMEO Gen 4 to Revolutionize State University Parking Security, Addressing Critical Guarding Challenges and Cutting Costs
Detroit, Michigan--(Newsfile Corp. - April 28, 2025) - Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc., (OTC Pink: AITX) (the Company), through its wholly owned subsidiary Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD), has secured an order for a ROAMEO Gen 4 autonomous security robot from a leading state university. The order, placed through one of RAD's fastest-growing dealers, positions ROAMEO Gen 4 as the university's new solution for securing expansive parking areas while overcoming the persistent challenges of human guard shortages and unsustainable costs. This win marks a strategic advance for RAD as it targets the higher education sector for aggressive expansion.

The ROAMEO Gen 4 order was secured through a RAD authorized dealer that has rapidly accelerated its deployment of RAD solutions across multiple industries. With more than 20 devices already operational in the field, the dealer's momentum continues to build as organizations seek smarter, more reliable security options. The latest university win underscores the dealer's ability to identify high-value opportunities and deliver transformative results with RAD technologies.
ROAMEO Gen 4 is RAD's next-generation mobile security robot, engineered to patrol large outdoor spaces with fully autonomous navigation and recharging capabilities. Standing 6 feet 9 inches tall and weighing over 1,600 pounds, ROAMEO Gen 4 commands attention while delivering advanced AI-powered threat detection, obstacle avoidance, and real-time engagement. Designed to perform the high-cost, repetitive tasks often assigned to human guards, ROAMEO Gen 4 brings a highly visible, proactive security presence to environments like university parking facilities, where fast response times and continuous coverage are critical. Its ability to deter, detect, and escalate incidents in real time offers a decisive advantage over traditional manned patrols, while delivering meaningful cost reductions.
"The higher education sector represents one of the most compelling opportunities for RAD's growth," said Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO of AITX and RAD. "Universities are facing the same security challenges as major enterprises, but they are under even greater pressure to find cost-effective solutions. ROAMEO Gen 4, along with the rest of the RAD lineup, is perfectly positioned to meet these needs with unmatched visibility, autonomy, and responsiveness."
Parking facilities have long been a weak point in campus security strategies, plagued by high costs, inconsistent coverage, and delayed response times. RAD sees a significant opportunity to disrupt this space with ROAMEO Gen 4's ability to provide continuous patrol, intelligent threat detection, and immediate escalation without the limitations of human staffing. Universities, municipalities, healthcare facilities, and commercial campuses represent a vast and largely untapped market where mobile security solutions like ROAMEO can deliver unmatched value
"After experiencing RAD's solutions firsthand at ISC West, it is clear that universities and public sector agencies are starting to rethink what is possible," said Troy McCanna, Chief Security Officer and Senior Vice President of Revenue Operations at RAD. "The old models of hiring expensive guards to patrol endless parking lots are crumbling. ROAMEO Gen 4 gives these organizations a smarter, stronger, and more sustainable way to protect their people and assets."
Deployment of the university's ROAMEO Gen 4 unit is expected this summer. RAD anticipates that success with this client will open the door to additional opportunities across the higher education sector, where the demand for intelligent, cost-effective security solutions continues to grow.
