AITX’s RAD Offers SelectBlur at No Cost to Law Enforcement Agencies
Detroit, Michigan, March 26, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Robotic Assistance Devices (RAD), a subsidiary of Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTCPK:AITX), is pleased to announce the availability of 'SelectBlur', to law enforcement agencies at zero cost1. This offers comes on the heels of widespread news stories of the Murrieta Police Department utilizing Lego images in an effort to obscure faces in booking photos and videos.
- “It’s our commitment to empower law enforcement with the most innovative technological solutions available,” said Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO of AITX and RAD, reflecting on his deeply fulfilling years of collaboration with the LAPD.
- The recent incident involving the Murrieta Police Department's utilization of Lego images to obscure faces in booking photos underscores the complexities law enforcement agencies face in adhering to evolving privacy regulations.
- The California Legislature also passed Assembly Bill 1475 in 2021, prohibiting local law enforcement from publishing mug shots of suspects in nonviolent crimes.
- By waiving the monthly subscription, RAD is now enabling law enforcement agencies to allocate their resources more efficiently, redirecting funds towards other critical needs such as training, equipment, or community outreach initiatives.
