After 40 years in the restaurant business, I've joined my friend, Ravi Gade, in a new enterprise called NexGen Security Solutions.Ravi has spent over 10 years as a technology consultant in the "artificial intelligence" and "machine learning" fields. His client base is primarily large commercial enterprise, government and global banking institutions.Through Ravi's connections in this fast developing field, he was introduced to Robotic Assistance Devices....a security solutions company, specializing in A.I. powered technologies, based in California and Waterloo, ON.RAD has developed and deployed some amazing technologies that provide security, guarding & patrol, enhanced surveillance, access control, crowd & health monitoring solutions for business and institutional applications.RAD's value proposition is that it saves money. Based on the belief that "People are Premium Assets", RAD technologies augment and improve the efficiency of human effort and cost while applying A.I. powered automation to the mundane and often neglected aspects of surveillance, monitoring, identification, and access control.As a result of Covid 19 sanctions, RAD's recent breakthroughs have incorporated temperature sensing, face mask detection and social distancing monitoring to their state-of-the-art platforms.NexGen is RAD's Canadian representative and we are prospecting for potential clients.
