Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc., (OTCPK:AITX), today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD) has received a Wally order from a Fortune 250 ranked company. Although not named due to confidentiality agreements, the company indicated that the end-user is a global leader in supply chain management & third-party logistics.

“The application for this Wally order is at the core of what RAD is all about,” said Steve Reinharz, Founder and President of RAD. “Once deployed, this Wally will replace a security guard in one of the client’s lobbies. Wally can welcome, process, open doors, and document everyone that enters the facility at a fraction of the cost of the manned alternative.”

According to a recent McKinsey report, 45% of current paid activities can be automated by today’s technology, an equivalent of $2 trillion in total annual wages. Since its founding, RAD has sought to enable businesses to increase their productivity, enhance their security profile, while greatly reducing overall costs.

Reinharz also stated, “This client did their homework in checking out RAD, Wally, and the way we do things. Our Canadian team in Waterloo, Ontario, welcomed them and demonstrated all of Wally’s functions as well as the RAD software suite.” The company indicated that additional units, upwards of 50 similar Wally installations are possible following this initial deployment.

Wally (named as a Wall Mounted version of SCOT) is a welcome complement to front desk reception, lobby concierge services, and guarding personnel. Wally is capable of performing employee and visitor check-ins and clearances with access controls. Wally monitors the surrounding area through its dual hi-resolution, full-color digital cameras providing a wide 180° field of view.
