Knightscope is seeing campuses transition away from traditional emergency call boxes to more reliable and cost-effective systems that use cellular and satellite communications powered by solar energy. Knightscope’s portfolio of K1 products provide clear voice connectivity with a flashing blue strobe to extend access to emergency services to remote locations. Obsolete and non-functioning competitive devices are easily retrofitted with Knightscope technologies ensuring public safety is accessible, especially when a cell phone battery has died, or one is unfamiliar with the geography and cannot convey a precise location to first responders.
