SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OMNIQ Corp. (OTCQB: OMQS), a leading provider of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based solutions, today announced the deployment of an advanced AI parking access control system at a second major medical center in partnership with WPS.

This innovative system is designed to enhance campus security and optimize parking management by allowing authorized vehicles access to specific areas while disallowing unauthorized vehicles.

The pricing model for this solution is based on a subscription fee, offering a cost-effective approach for clients while ensuring continuous innovation and support from OMNIQ.
