#Military #Robotics #Stock News (TSXV: $AZ.V) - A2Z Technologies Canada Provides Update on Life Saving Automotive Innovations: FTICS; @A2Z_Advanced 



TEL AVIV, ISRAEL, February 6, 2020 – (investorideas.com Newswire, Homelanddefensestocks.com) A2Z Technologies Canada Corp., (TSXV:AZ.V), a pioneer in military robotics and innovation in the automotive industry, recently reported  filing  an additional technology patent as it continues the development of the Fuel Tank Inertia Capsule System (FTICS), and is aiming for installations to commence in 2020 to help save lives in the event of fires from vehicle collisions.


The FTICS is a patented 3-part system that deploys in the event of a vehicle collision. On collision, the FTICS releases a proprietary chemical mixture into the gas tank, neutralizing the contents rendering them inert and non-flammable. The gas tank is also isolated to ensure none of the contents leak. The final component of the FTICS system forces all the oxygen out of the gas tank to further limit the possibility of fire.

The FTICS requires no additional sensors as it is triggered by the same sensors that trigger the deployment of the vehicle's airbag.

An in-depth video on how the FTICS works can be found here: Click Here

Mr. Bentsur Joseph, CEO of A2Z, highlights, "A2Z is a tier-one approved supplier to the Israeli Ministry of Defense. Our certifications and qualifications are second to none, and it is hard to describe just how excited we are about bringing this technology to mass markets. We look forward to bridging this last safety frontier and helping keep passengers and first responders safer in the event of life threatening vehicle collisions. We hope to save many lives and bring our shareholders healthy profits in the process. The FTICS is good for the world, the environment, and for our shareholders as well."

According to the NFPA, for the five year period from 2014 to 2018, an estimated 864,000 highway vehicle fires occurred in the United States that resulted in 1925 civilian deaths and ~US$6.45B in property damage. The Fuel Tank Inertia Capsule System (FTICS) takes technology developed for military vehicles and looks to solve the problem of collision-related vehicle fires for non-military markets.

Association for Safer Driving in Israel Encourages Israel to Mandate A2Z's FTICS to Save Lives on the Road


VANCOUVER, BC (Investorideas.com Newswire, Homelanddefensestocks.com) A2Z Technologies Canada Corp. ("A2Z" or the "Company") ( TSXV:AZ.V) recently reported  that their proprietary, patent pending Fuel Tank Intelligent Containment System (FTICS) received coverage on Israel's nationwide news network and a strong endorsement from the Or Yarok Association for Safer Driving in Israel, encouraging the appropriate bodies to mandate the system to save lives from fires caused by automobile collisions.


The televised segment, featured on Kan 11, highlighted Israel's 3,000 vehicle fires annually and showcased a detailed explanation of how the FTICS technology works. It included footage of some of A2Z's other products and was shot on-location at A2Z's lab in Israel.

Oz Dror, VP of Strategy and Communications of the Or Yarok Association stated, "At an accident every second is critical. This large number, eight vehicles a day, means that the state has to demand that new vehicles entering the market must install these systems, as this will prevent loss of lives."

The online version of the broadcast subtitles can be found here: YouTube (Hebrew with English Subtitles)

Bentsur Joseph, CEO of A2Z Technologies, noted: "We are thrilled to be featured in Kan's primetime broadcast and understand how important this public validation is for our technologies as they move closer to market. Kan 11 is like the BBC of Israel and the value of such a media platform to tell our story cannot be underestimated. We welcome the media and public interest in our lifesaving technologies, and we are delighted to have been profiled."

The FTICS is a patented system that deploys in the event of a vehicle collision releasing a proprietary chemical mixture into the gas tank, neutralizing the contents rendering them inert and non-flammable. The FTICS requires no additional sensors as it is triggered by the same sensors that trigger the deployment of the vehicle's airbag and can be retrofitted or installed in any fuel tank.

On the scale of the opportunity in Israel Bentsur Joseph commented: "While the FTICS will be available for retrofit for any fuel tank, having our system become mandatory represents an astounding opportunity for our Company which we will aggressively pursue. In addition to the 3.5M civilian vehicles currently registered on the road, in 2018 over 250,000 new vehicles entered the market in Israel. We believe some of our long-standing customers can certainly benefit from adopting this recommendation, and we look forward to bringing this life saving technology to civilians across Israel as a stepping-stone to additional markets."

#AI News: VSBLTY (CSE: $VSBY.C) (OTC: $VSBGF) / Energetika 'Citizen Safety' Program Makes Cuajimalpa Safest County in Mexico City; @vsbltyco


#AI News: VSBLTY (CSE: $VSBY.C) (OTC: $VSBGF) / Energetika 'Citizen Safety' Program Makes Cuajimalpa Safest County in Mexico City; @vsbltyco



Philadelphia, PA - February 5, 2020 (Investorideas.com Newswire) VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp. (CSE: VSBY) (5VS.F) (VSBGF) ('VSBLTY'), a leading retail software and technology company, and Energetika, an international provider of "intelligent lighting" solutions, are achieving outstanding results in making Mexico City communities much safer. The firms are installing thousands of security kits, powered by VSBLTY software, in the initial phase of the $10 million investment Mexico City is making in its safety lighting and integrated security program. The Mexican capital was designated as a "Smart City" in 2016 in recognition of its achievement in adapting to environmental and economic conditions and keeping them sustainable.


Adrian Ruvalcaba, Mayor of Cuajimalpa County, reported that after the installation of the security kits, his community has become the safest county in Mexico City. "We have gone from the 11th Safest to Number One during 2019. The single major contributor to this change is the camera network that is not even fully installed yet," the Mayor said. Neighboring Cuauhtemoc County reported a 40 percent reduction of crime in the first year of the installation of Energetika's lighting infrastructure and VSBLTY's AI-inspired video analytics.

Energetika's security kit is a first of its kind "Citizen Safety" application and infrastructure program that includes outdoor mounted HD cameras, high intensity lighting, motion sensors and audible alarms. The technology also provides facial recognition and real time video analytics for crowd behavior. This low-cost system runs off local citizens' internet service and is accessible on mobile devices in real time and includes an alerting system to enable direct local uniformed police response. The mobile application also permits content sharing for neighborhood watch and a panic button.

Energetika CEO Rodrigo Calderon said, "We are just in phase one deployment of security kits covering up to 40,000 endpoints throughout 56 Mexico City communities. We started last January in Miguel Hidalgo, Cuajimalpa, Cuauhtemoc and Benito Juarez," he explained.
"With this unique security kit deployment model perfected, we are hosting other Central and South American municipalities who wish to learn more about this program to improve citizen safety. We are projecting that this cost-efficient solution may be installed in three million security cameras or more in Latin America alone," Calderon predicted.

Energetika, when contracted to provide smart lighting solutions for economically efficient applications that incorporate security, chose VSBLTY to provide security technology that includes crowd analytics and facial recognition for residential, commercial and governmental applications.

VSBLTY CEO Jay Hutton said of the progress to date, "We are excited to see the amazing early safety results of this deployment. It is setting the standard for collaborative security where citizens, law enforcement and technology work together to achieve a higher level of security. This Smart City deployment extends the reach of the security umbrella to residences and provides citizen access to city services right on individuals' mobile devices. We look forward to collaborating on future deployments that will provide the next generation of public safety applications including tracking persons of interest, weapon detection, as well as vehicle and crowd analytics using the power of machine learning and computer vision," he said.

#Security #Stock A2Z Technologies (TSXV: $AZ.V) Reports Contract with Nasdaq-Listed Israel #Defense #Technology Company; @A2Z_Advanced



VANCOUVER, BC - February 5, 2020 (Investorideas.com Newswire) A2Z Technologies Canada Corp. ("A2Z" or the "Company") (TSXV: AZ) announced today that the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, A2Z MS Military Solutions, Ltd., has been awarded a contract with an Israel-based, NASDAQ-listed defense technology company (the "Client").


A2Z has been contracted by the Client to perform electrical safety checks as well as other service functions across the Client's facilities. The Company will also approve of the quality and safety of their electrical systems. The ongoing contract is priced on a variable-basis, with A2Z's revenues being determined by the degree and frequency of service that the Client requires. The Company expects to generate meaningful revenues over the life of the contract.

In the coming years A2Z anticipates that this contract will provide variable recurring revenues while further deepening the Company's relationship with one of their significant peers in the defense-technology space. This new contract represents further growth in A2Z's service-based military-technology business.

"We are very pleased to have been given this opportunity," stated Bentsur Joseph, Founder and CEO of A2Z. "This contract brings more than just revenue, as it shows the tremendous respect leading defense technology vendors have for A2Z's knowledge and capabilities while adding to our growing list of prestigious clients. The safety of employees and sophisticated systems of this major high technology conglomerate is essentially being entrusted to A2Z's capable hands and we intend to further capitalize on this contract as our relationship grows."

About A2Z
A2Z Technologies Canada Corp. is an innovative technology company based out of Israel, specializing in military technology and expanding into the civilian markets. A2Z has been operating for over 30 years and has a client base with 75 recurring clients, including the Israel Defense Forces, Security Forces, and Ministry of Defense among others. A2Z plans to leverage their cash flow-generating core-business to expand into the civilian robotics and automobile markets.

According to Zion Market Research, the Military Robotics space is expected to reach $53.93B by 2027 for a projected CAGR of 13.5%. (Summary of Report)

Highlights:
Core Business: A2Z's line of products include unmanned remote-controlled vehicles of various sizes designed for intricate bomb disposal, counter terrorism, and firefighting, as well as energy storage power packs/generators. A2Z also provides maintenance services to both external and in-house complex electronic systems and products to over 75 clients.
A2Z has been an Israel Ministry of Defense contractor for over 30 years and a significant portion of its business is long-term service contracts.

Expansion into Civilian Markets: To drive growth, A2Z plans to adapt its military technologies for the much larger civilian markets. One patent-pending product is a capsule (FTICS) that prevents vehicle fires resulting from collisions. A2Z has also been granted a patent for a smart vehicle cover device that protects automobiles from natural elements while the vehicle is parked and is stowed away safely in the vehicle's bumper when not in use.

Fuel Tank Intelligent Containment System (FTICS): In the event of a collision, the FTICS installed into the fuel tank prevents the ignition of fuel, thereby mitigating the spread of fire and explosion, minimizing risk to human life and property damage. According to the NFPA, from 2014 to 2016, an estimated 171,500 highway vehicle fires occurred in the United States, resulting in an annual average of 345 deaths, 1,300 injuries, and $1.1 billion in property loss annually.

Management: CEO Bentsur Joseph's previous venture, Comfy Interactive, was acquired by Shamrock Holdings, the family investment firm founded by Roy Disney. Previously, Bentsur Joseph was the chairman of Elad Hotels whose holdings include the Plaza Hotel in New York City.

Bentsur Joseph has a ~64% ownership stake in the business with 30,000,000 shares subject to an escrow agreement.
