Guardforce AI launches Intelligent Cloud Platform to Transform Robotics Solutions

Guardforce AI's ICP will help manage robots, grow partnerships and boost client offerings.

NEW YORK, Oct. 18, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Guardforce AI Co., Limited (Nasdaq: GFAI) ("Guardforce AI"), an integrated security solutions provider in Asia, today announced the launch of its Intelligent Cloud Platform (ICP), an intelligent online robotics management platform that will allow Guardforce AI to remotely manage and monitor robots deployed with clients.

The ICP's open platform architecture will enable Guardforce AI to integrate other solutions to further enhance its features and services. It will also allow Guardforce AI to work with other AI technology providers to integrate their solutions into the platform, thereby increasing the overall value of its client offering.

In addition to its existing contactless temperature reading capability for safe entry to a property, the ICP will be enhanced to include advertising management, remote access control management and CCTV security surveillance. The advertising services solutions will provide additional revenue opportunities for clients who subscribe to Guardforce AI's Robotics as a Service (RaaS).

"We launched the ICP to support cooperation and partnerships with other technology providers, especially AI specialists, to maintain our best-in-class solution for clients. It's part of our broader strategy to transform our business into a technologically integrated security service provider," said Terence Yap, Chairman of Guardforce AI. "The launch of the ICP raises our value proposition and service offerings to clients, while also positioning us as a leading RaaS provider in the region."

Forward-looking statements provide our current expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements include statements about our expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. Words or phrases such as "anticipate," "believe," "continue," "estimate," "expect," "intend," "may," "ongoing," "plan," "potential," "predict," "project," "will" or similar words or phrases, or the negatives of those words or phrases, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. The forward-looking statements contained in this press release are based on reasonable assumptions we have made in light of our industry experience, perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you read and consider this press release you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (many of which are beyond our control) and assumptions, including the risks described in the reports and other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of these assumptions prove incorrect or change, our actual operating and financial performance may vary in material respects from the performance projected in these forward-looking statements.  Any forward-looking statement made by us in this press release speaks only as of the date of this press release.
