On March 20, 2026, Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (AITX) announced a significant development in its operations. The company, a leader in AI-driven security solutions, revealed that its subsidiary, Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD), has secured an order for five RIO 360 solar-powered autonomous security towers. This order comes from an active channel partner and is set for deployment at a high-traffic downtown civic center in a major Midwest city. Each unit will be powered by SARA (Speaking Autonomous Responsive Agent), RAD's proprietary AI platform, which is designed to enhance security in municipal environments.

This order marks a notable milestone for RAD, as it reflects the growing acceptance of autonomous security solutions among municipalities and public space operators. The channel partner, with this latest order, will have surpassed 30 RAD devices deployed across various environments, showcasing the increasing demand for cost-effective security alternatives to traditional guarding models. Troy McCanna, Chief Revenue and Chief Security Officer at RAD, emphasized the shift in how municipalities approach public safety, recognizing that autonomous solutions can provide consistent and responsive security coverage without the variability and costs associated with traditional models.

The announcement is expected to have a noticeable positive effect on AITX's stock price, as it highlights the company's expanding footprint in the autonomous security market. The growing acceptance of RAD's technology is further supported by the company's successful completion of its SOC 2 Type 2 audit, which validates its internal controls for handling customer data, enhancing its credibility with enterprise and government clients.

As AITX continues to innovate and expand its offerings, it invites security professionals and potential channel partners to experience its solutions at ISC West 2026, where live demonstrations will be held. This event will provide an opportunity for attendees to engage with RAD leadership and learn more about the practical applications of autonomous security systems in real-world environments.
