College Adds Knightscope Blue Light Towers for Student Safety

Robot Roadshow to be on Display at 18^th Annual VA Healthcare Summit

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Knightscope, Inc. [Nasdaq: KSCP] (“Knightscope” or the “Company”), an innovator in robotics and artificial intelligence (“AI”) technologies focused on public safety, today announces a new contract from a college in Nevada for 8 of its K1 Blue Light Towers. Each of the devices will be powered by integrated solar panels enabling completely wireless operation, with mass notification speakers and faceplate cameras. To maximize the performance and capabilities of the system, the client also subscribed to a full-service maintenance plan and the Knightscope Emergency Management System (“KEMS”) software that will monitor the status and activity of the Towers across the campus.

College campus safety is a top priority that ensures a secure and enjoyable environment for students, faculty and visitors. Emergency communications play a vital role in that mission by providing an extra layer of protection with reliable, one-touch access to services such as police, fire and EMS. Those on campus are encouraged to use the new Blue Light Tower without hesitation in times of danger, personal crisis, medical emergencies, to report suspicious behavior or activities, or for accidents.

The familiar blue illuminated towers are a very reassuring sight when emergency services are needed. They work day and night in all weather and even when communications are most congested. Blue light emergency phone systems also always report one’s precise location reliably, ensuring the expedited arrival of the appropriate type of help.

KEMS sends out immediate text/email notifications whenever a help button is pressed for an added measure of safety. The cloud-based application also provides system owners automated daily email reports on the operational status of their system rather than having to manually test each device in person as required by competitive products. Alerts concerning issues, real-time error detection/diagnostics, and system performance statistics are delivered to the client to maximize system operation and usability.

KNIGHTSCOPE’S ROBOT ROADSHOW TO LAND AT VA HEALTHCARE SUMMIT

Knightscope’s Robot Roadshow will be landing in Arlington, VA, on July 23-24, 2024, at the 18^th Annual Veterans Affairs Healthcare Summit. The Roadshow will be open outside the entrance of the Crystal Gateway Marriott during event exhibit hours.

The Summit is an industry-wide staple for those supporting the VA’s mission set including partners across the military, government, private and non-profit healthcare sector, academia and consultant communities. The event provides those leaders across the VA Healthcare ecosystem the chance to learn, share, and connect with our nation’s veterans to improve health outcomes, care access, and delivery.

The Robot Roadshow is an engaging experiential event, allowing potential clients and the general public to participate in expert-led demonstrations in a climate controlled, space-age “pod” where attendees may experience the self-driving, electric technologies that are already helping protect the places people live, work, study and visit. Visitors will be able to interact directly with Autonomous Security Robots, test a blue light emergency phone, and see the Knightscope Security Operations Center (KSOC) user interface in action.

Watch a brief video of the Robot Roadshow at the Tesla Takeover here.

The Robot Roadshow is free to attend for everyone (registration for the Healthcare Summit is not required). Those wishing to schedule a time to get one-on-one attention may book a Pod visit here.
