ROSA and SARA Extend Intelligent Escalation from the Edge to Human Action
Detroit, Michigan, March 4, 2026 — Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) (OTCID:AITX), a global leader in AI-driven security and productivity solutions, along with its wholly owned subsidiary, Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD), today announced that an existing channel partner has ordered two ROSA™ security devices, each powered by SARA™, RAD’s agentic AI platform, to complete the detection to guard response architecture at a retail property.
The pending deployment is designed to provide continuous edge-based monitoring with intelligent escalation to human guard response only when required, offering a more controlled and cost efficient approach to securing retail environments. Retail centers continue to face rising security costs driven by labor inflation, expanding property footprints, and increased after hours exposure. Traditional guard-only models often require continuous on-site presence regardless of actual threat activity, creating significant operating expense. By positioning ROSA devices at key access points and integrating SARA for intelligent analysis and escalation, the security posture shifts from constant manual coverage to continuous autonomous detection with targeted human intervention. This architecture provides retail operators with improved oversight while helping bring greater predictability and discipline to security spending.
Troy McCanna, Chief Revenue and Chief Security Officer at RAD, commented, “The industry is recognizing that placing autonomous detection at the edge and using intelligent AI to determine when human response is necessary is a smarter operational model. Retail operators cannot continue absorbing rising guard costs while maintaining the same coverage expectations. What we are seeing now is a shift toward layered security where technology handles constant monitoring and people are deployed with purpose. That transition is accelerating.”
RAD invites security professionals and current and prospective channel partners to experience its full portfolio of solutions in action at ISC West 2026. Attendees will have the opportunity to see live demonstrations, speak directly with RAD leadership and product experts, and learn how autonomous security deployments are being proven, expanded, and scaled across real world environments. Meetings may be scheduled in advance or coordinated onsite throughout the event.
