Knightscope announces three new contracts totaling 5 devices

Knightscope announced three new contracts totaling 5 devices for a New York college, a city in Nevada, and a park in Oklahoma. Knightscope commented: “The goal of a strong emergency communications system is to provide a platform for individuals to reduce the number of possibilities for criminals to commit a crime. A University of Southern California study found that public venues with visible security equipment like blue light emergency towers and phones increased the area’s perceived safety, making people feel more comfortable at such locations/venues. The objective is straightforward: when someone identifies their own personal vulnerability to crime, they can mitigate the risk by taking preventative measures and communicating with authorities. These three new users are taking proactive measures to build a robust and reliable communications pipeline for employees, faculty, students and visitors to reach professional help when in need or in the case of a life-threatening emergency.”
