  • RADCam integrates Alexa, enhancing AI security with voice interaction for effortless monitoring.
  • Hands-free access via Alexa accelerates intelligent security adoption in residential smart home tech.
  • Collaboration with AWS supports RADCam's rapid platform evolution towards advanced AI capabilities.

Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc, along with its subsidiary Robotic Assistance Devices Residential, Inc. (RAD-R), has announced a significant upgrade to its interactive security camera, RADCam.

This enhancement introduces Alexa voice interaction, allowing users to request and receive verbal descriptions of activities captured by the camera, thereby bolstering its role in AI-powered residential security.

Integration with voice assistants

The integration follows a prior announcement about connecting RADCam with leading voice assistant platforms. The new Alexa interaction enhances convenience, providing users with real-time insights without the need for screen-based checks. With on-demand spoken activity summaries, RADCam integrates seamlessly into voice-activated smart home technologies.

Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO and Founder of AITX and RAD-R, stated, “This upgrade delivers another meaningful step forward for RADCam and for residential AI security. Giving users the ability to ask Alexa what RADCam sees creates a level of simplicity and awareness that traditional cameras cannot match.”

Advancing RADCam's capabilities

Incorporating Alexa voice capabilities is part of an extensive expansion strategy for RADCam

Incorporating Alexa voice capabilities is part of an extensive expansion strategy for RADCam, aimed at enhancing residential and small business security technology.

It already provides automated event descriptions, smart notifications, and insights from SARA (Speaking Autonomous Responsive Agent), the company's award-winning AI platform.

The addition of hands-free access signifies ongoing efforts by RAD-R to simplify usage while promoting intelligent monitoring that corresponds with user routines.

Collaborative development with AWS

Integrating Alexa was facilitated by cooperation with Amazon Web Services (AWS), offering technical resources to expedite this feature. This collaboration aligns with a broader platform evolution strategy presented by Reinharz in January, contributing to the company's vision for a comprehensive 'Security of Everything'.

Reinharz emphasized the rapid advancements being made, noting, “Each upgrade makes the experience stronger for homeowners and small businesses and reinforces the value of bringing true agentic AI capability into residential security.”

Expanding RADCam features

A demonstration video of RADCam's Alexa interaction illustrates how homeowners can request event recalls and obtain real-time alerts through spoken responses. The video demonstrates how voice activation improves daily awareness and outlines the AI impact within the RADCam system.

AITX and RAD-R are planning further enhancements to boost user awareness, streamline automation, and expand smart home compatibility. The company anticipates that these ongoing upgrades will facilitate broader adoption in the residential market while strengthening its position in AI-driven security solutions.
