RAD expands mobile security lineup with new RIO Mini
Robotic Assistance Devices, Inc. (RAD), a subsidiary of Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc., announced the expansion of its popular RIO™ solar-powered, mobile security solution lineup.
Named RIO Mini, the new security solution is now in production, with the Company forecasting that it can add up to 500 units to its sales expectations this fiscal year.
Mobile surveillance systems
The Company joins LiveView Technologies Inc., which raised $50 million in a Series B round in 2022, in finding success and growth in this rapidly expanding market.
LiveView Technologies has demonstrated strong demand for solar-powered mobile surveillance systems, validating the market opportunity that RAD is now addressing with RIO Mini.
RAD’s award-winning ROSA™ device
RIO Mini surpasses other affordable mobile security solutions in performance and value
Utilising a dual configuration of RAD’s award-winning ROSA™ device, RIO Mini surpasses other affordable mobile security solutions in performance and value.
ROSA is a multiple award-winning, compact, self-contained, portable, security and communication solution that can be installed and activated in about 15 minutes.
ROSA’s AI-driven security analytics
ROSA’s AI-driven security analytics include human and vehicle detection, and complete integration with RAD’s software suite notification and autonomous response library. Two-way communication is optimised for cellular, including live video from ROSA’s high-resolution, full-color, always-on cameras.
RAD has published six Case Studies detailing how ROSA has helped eliminate instances of theft, trespassing and loitering at retail centres, hospital campuses, multi-family communities, car rental locations and construction sites across the country.
RAD’s existing RIO lineup
RIO Mini joins RAD’s existing RIO lineup, which includes the popular RIO 180 and RIO 360 units
RIO Mini joins RAD’s existing RIO lineup, which includes the popular RIO 180 and RIO 360 units, further filling in the product family. RIO Mini is expected to achieve greater profitability than the primary RIO lineup while being substantially less expensive for clients.
It will feature reduced analytics processing and limitations on other select features while maintaining RAD’s core Autonomous Intelligent Response capabilities. The device is enabled by a lower-cost modified version of RAD G’s RADPack, providing consistent performance in a compact and economical format.
Development by AITX’s various subsidiaries
Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO of AITX and RAD, commented, “We are starting to see the benefits after years of hardware and software development by AITX’s various subsidiaries. Utilising internally developed analytics and electronics hardware and benefiting from our complete control of the supply chain, we are well-positioned to compete aggressively in the mobile surveillance unit marketplace."
"This new solution will enable dealers and our internal sales team to expand their target markets to include clients that want the basics of intelligent autonomous response.”
How RIO Mini’s streamlined design and accessible pricing
The response from RAD’s channel partners, existing clients, and new prospects was positive
As with all RAD security solutions, RIO Mini is supported by SARA™, the Company’s multiple award-winning AI-based software platform. SARA (Speaking Autonomous Responsive Agent) provides real-time responsiveness, centralised device management, and seamless integration across RAD’s ecosystem of autonomous security technologies.
RIO Mini was introduced to the public last week during ISC West in Las Vegas, the security industry’s largest and most influential trade show. The response from RAD’s channel partners, existing clients, and new prospects was overwhelmingly positive. Many attendees expressed interest in how RIO Mini’s streamlined design and accessible pricing could open new markets and use cases that complement the existing RIO offerings.

This addition to the product lineup reflects the Company’s ongoing focus on addressing evolving market demands with practical, high-performance offerings.
RAD’s reputation for innovation
RIO Mini reinforces RAD’s reputation for innovation and dependability while making intelligent autonomous response more accessible across a wider range of use cases.
