Robotic Assistance Devices Residential, Inc. (RAD-R), a subsidiary of Artificial Intelligence Technology Solutions, Inc. announced the purchase of 1 million unique MAC addresses.
These addresses will be assigned to RADCam units as the Company ramps up production and deployment of its innovative residential security device.
MAC (Media Access Control) address
RAD-R’s acquisition of these MAC addresses ensures that each RADCam deployed in the coming months will be equipped with its own secure, identifiable network presence.
A MAC (Media Access Control) address is a unique identifier assigned to network interfaces for communications at the data link layer of a network segment.
Device identification
A MAC address is often written in a format like “00:1A:2B:3C:4D:5E” and is crucial for network communication
It’s used to identify devices within a network, such as security cameras, computers, or IoT devices, and is typically assigned by the device manufacturer.
A MAC address is often written in a format like “00:1A:2B:3C:4D:5E” and is crucial for network communication, ensuring that data gets sent to the correct device on a local network.
Secure and efficient
“Securing one million MAC addresses marks an important step in our mission to bring intelligent, autonomous security to homes and small businesses across the nation,” said Steve Reinharz, CEO/CTO of AITX and RAD-R.
“This purchase supports our expansion and will help ensure that RADCam devices operate securely and efficiently as they scale up to meet growing market demand.”
Privacy, security, and operational efficiency
The acquisition and ownership of these MAC addresses demonstrate that RAD-R has completed full development and retains full control of all code, server, and processing operations, all based in the United States. This further reassures RADCam customers that all data processing, storage, and communications for RADCam and future devices remain securely within U.S. borders, enhancing privacy, security, and operational efficiency.
By maintaining direct oversight of these critical components, the Company guarantees that RADCam’s performance and security features are managed without reliance on third-party, offshore services.
Real-time autonomous interaction
MAC address will play a key role in streamlining device integration into residential networks
As RAD-R prepares for large-scale deployment of RADCam, the innovative “talking” security camera leveraging AI and LLM technologies, each MAC address will play a key role in streamlining device integration into residential networks, enhancing both security and performance for homeowners.
Unlike traditional cameras, RADCam features real-time autonomous interaction and conversational capabilities, powered by AITX’s proprietary AIR™ technology.
RADCam pre-orders
The Company noted that it is currently in production of 10,000 RADCam units, with targeted shipments beginning in December 2024. RADCam pre-orders are being accepted at radcam.ai, providing early adopters the opportunity to be among the first to experience the world’s first talking security camera.
“We’re excited to see RADCam scaling rapidly, and while 10,000 units represent just 1% of the MAC addresses we’ve secured, I look forward to the day when we’ll need to replenish that million as RADCam becomes a ubiquitous presence in homes across the country,” concluded Reinharz.
