Guardforce AI Expands Applications of Robotics Solutions

 

~ Rollout of Additional Features for Robots Powered by Intelligent Cloud Platform Initiated in Macau ~

 

NEW YORK, April 5, 2022 -- Guardforce AI Co., Limited (“Guardforce AI” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: GFAI, GFAIW), an integrated security solutions provider, today announced it has begun to roll out additional features for its Intelligent Cloud Platform (“ICP”) powered robots in Macau. This expansion increases the usability and application of its robots while creating new revenue and partnership opportunities with advertisers and marketing vendors.

 

On the Company’s new expansion, Terence Yap, Chairman of Guardforce AI, commented, “At Guardforce AI, we are continuously and consistently focused on innovation and improvement. Our initial rollout of our ICP powered robots in Macau is a testament to our commitment and an important part of our ethos of ‘one machine, multi-revenue streams.’ Macau is expected to be one of the preferred destinations for meetings, incentives, conventions, and exhibitions, making it an ideal market to test our latest technology and drive additional revenue opportunities for advertisers and marketers going forward.”

 

Guardforce AI’s robots are ideal for displaying advertisements as most deployments are concentrated within indoor facilities and entrances, with high visibility upon immediate entrance into the facility. The large screen displays on the robots provide increased advertising opportunities for Guardforce AI’s clients. Through the ICP, we have upgraded our robot’s displays with the capability to display static and multi-media videos. As the displays are completely customizable and can be managed remotely, they are highly suitable for retail and corporate advertisers. As of March 31, 2022, Guardforce AI had more than 200 robots deployed in Macau.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance.

Actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements.
