RAD develops AI-powered speech and nav capabilities for robotic devices

DETROIT – Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions (AITX), alongside its wholly owned subsidiary Robotic Assistance Devices (RAD), have unveiled what they are calling an important evolution in robotics and AI technology.

RAD CEO Steve Reinharz announced a fully autonomous quadruped robot that demonstrates operational functionality which is expected to transform the security and proptech industries. In a video demonstration Reinharz showed the robot’s abilities to speak, listen, and respond to verbal commands.

“Our objective is to enhance security operations while reducing risk and ensuring efficiency. RADDOG or other RAD devices enabled with this level of AI functionality will be a tangible representation of this commitment,” said Reinharz. This introduction is a notable advancement in how we envision and plan to implement our security solutions.”

Reinharz added, “With our advanced human detection capabilities RADDOG, and soon other RAD devices, will be able to reliably identify and autonomously react to potential threats. Its autonomous mobility will enable it to patrol diverse terrain and locations that might present risks to human officers. In case of security breaches or emergencies, RADDOG can autonomously escalate its responses, alerting human operators that are monitoring the activity or it can activate its integrated security systems.”

This advanced AI functionality is planned to be included in the future RADDOG 3S release and scheduled for commercial availability in October for several industries.
