Patriot One Technologies Announces Accuracy Enhancements to Video Recognition Software for Weapons and Threat Detection

Patriot One Technologies Inc. (TSX: PAT) (OTCQX: PTOTF) (FRANKFURT: 0PL) (“Patriot One” or the “Company”) today announced enhancements to its Video Recognition Software (VRS) for identifying weapons and other threats in crowds. Patriot One’s VRS is an advanced artificial intelligence (AI)-based video analytics solution that provides unprecedented accuracy in detecting threats and enabling businesses, schools and other organizations to protect employees, students, customers and assets. Businesses can also use its capabilities to gain valuable intelligence on customer traffic flow and behavior to optimize operations.

With the ability to accurately detect weapons and disturbances of up to 150 feet away, Patriot One’s VRS dramatically improves security and efficiency for organizations that host crowds or the general public, including retail stores, schools, casinos, entertainment venues and more.

This squanders critical minutes in the incident detection and response cycle,” said Peter Evans, CEO of Patriot One. “VRS automatically validates alerts through multiple camera sources and a combination of AI analytic engines, so security staff can be correctly notified and briefed in real-time before a weapons incident or other type of disturbance arises.”
