“We have also recently announced the launch of our patented SeeCube™ solution, which has the broadened ability to capture and record all of a vehicle’s characteristics, including make, model and color. We anticipate that as customers see how effective our LPR solution is, they will understand the additional value in selecting an upgrade to our SeeCube™ solution, which, through its heightened identification and tracking capabilities, enables law enforcement and homeland security forces to quickly and accurately identify and prevent dangerous and life threatening situations and can facilitate an automated parking process to maximize revenue.”

With the abiliity to provide crucial real-time information to law enforcement and homeland security organizations based on the most sophisticated AI and machine learning technology, we believe demand for our solutions will continue to grow.
