Robot Dog Saves Lives in Massachusetts Standoff
–News Direct–
A robotic dog named Roscoe from the Massachusetts State Police Bomb Squad is being praised for its role in averting a potential tragedy involving a person barricaded in a home.1
On March 6, the Massachusetts State Police sent Roscoe into a home where a 30-year-old man, who had allegedly held his mother at knifepoint, was located. The suspect shot the robot three times, partially disabling it.
State police noted that deploying Roscoe potentially saved the lives of officers and real dogs involved in the incident.
Boston Dynamics, the company behind the Spot robot, stated that it was the first time one of their robots had been shot. The company expressed relief that the only casualty was their robot. Roscoe has been sent to Boston Dynamics for repairs, and a new unit will be provided to the state police.
Robots are increasingly being used by law enforcement agencies nationwide. In New York City, Digidogs have been employed since 2023 to help de-escalate situations. Similarly, law enforcement agencies in Florida, Los Angeles, and other states have utilized these cybernetic hounds.2
Another company deploying AI-powered robots and emergency systems to deter crime across the US is Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP), a leading innovator in robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) technologies focused on public safety.
Knightscopes autonomous security robots (ASRs) use a unique combination of self-driving technology, robotics, AI, and electric vehicles to provide humans with extra eyes, ears and a voice on the ground.
Innovative Robot Company Progresses on Path to Profitable Expansion
Knightscope deployed its first Autonomous Security Robots in May 2015 and has continued signing contracts since with major clients across the country. The companys ASRs, Blue Light Tower emergency phones and Automated Gunshot Detection (AGD) technology is already being utilized in public spaces including schools, hospitals, HOAs, casinos, transportation hubs and places of worship.
On April 4, Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP) announced 18 new contracts and five new renewal agreements that are valued at over $1 million.
The announcement comes off the back of a successful Innovation Week held by the company and its FY 2023 results, adding substantial growth in its top line revenue through new contracts.
These contracts predominantly hail from rapidly expanding sectors like transportation, healthcare, education, and local government, which not only form the bulk of the current agreements but also offer numerous prospects for further expansion across both individual clients and their markets.
Earlier this week, Knightscope, Inc. (NASDAQ:KSCP) reported its financial results for 2023, showcasing significant progress towards profitability and operational efficiency.
Knightscope reported total revenue of $12.8 million, marking a substantial 128% increase from the previous year. This growth was driven by a $2 million increase in net revenue from services, totaling $7.2 million, and a $5.2 million increase in net revenue from product sales, totaling $5.6 million. The surge in product sales was attributed to the integration of Emergency Communication Devices (ECDs) into their product lines following the acquisition of CASE Emergency Management Systems.
Total operating expenses for the year amounted to $24.3 million, a $4.4 million reduction from the previous year. This reduction was driven by lower sales and marketing costs and R&D expenses, leading to operating expenses as a percentage of revenue dropping from 509% to 190%.
Looking ahead to 2024, Knightscope has outlined a growth strategy focused on organizational restructuring, service optimization, manufacturing consolidation, and facility reduction. These initiatives aim to reduce payroll expense by over 30%, align support for key technologies with service contracts, and improve manufacturing efficiency and facility utilization.
Knightscope also plans to bolster its product offering further after signing an MOU with Draganfly (NASDAQ: DPRO), an award-winning industry leading drone developer. The company plans to integrate Draganflys drone technology with its ASR tech to create Autonomous Security Drones.

London, United Kingdom, 19th Oct 2024 – SuiAddress is taking decentralized governance to the next level with the introduction of the $SUIADD token, a key component driving the platform’s blockchain-based naming service. $SUIADD not only powers the ecosystem but also enables a community-centric governance framework that allows users to have a direct impact on the platform’s evolution. By integrating decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) principles, SuiAddress is setting a new benchmark for blockchain name services in terms of governance, transparency, and user empowerment.
The $SUIADD governance model ensures that decision-making processes are not confined to a centralized team but are rather driven by the collective voice of the community. With each token representing a share in governance power, $SUIADD holders can actively participate in shaping the future direction of the platform, from protocol upgrades to treasury management.
Core Governance Features of $SUIADD:
• Voting Power for Token Holders: All $SUIADD holders can exercise voting rights proportional to their holdings, enabling them to approve or reject changes to the platform’s core functionalities, fee structures, and technical upgrades. This democratic approach ensures that the interests of the community are prioritized.
• Proposal Creation: Users who actively contribute to the platform can submit proposals for new features, integrations, or modifications. The proposal process is designed to be transparent, with detailed discussions and community feedback encouraged before any decisions are made. This inclusivity fosters an environment where innovative ideas can flourish.
• Treasury Management and Buybacks: Revenue generated from domain registrations, leasing, and other platform services is directed into the treasury. The community can vote on how these funds are allocated, including the option for treasury buybacks to increase the value of $SUIADD tokens. This model not only enhances the token’s utility but also provides financial stability to the platform.
The Impact of DAO Integration on Blockchain Name Services
By integrating DAO governance, SuiAddress ensures that the platform adapts and evolves according to the community’s needs. This decentralized model empowers users to contribute more than just capital; they contribute to the platform’s direction and future success. As more users engage with the DAO, the system becomes more robust and resilient, capable of scaling alongside the growth of the blockchain naming service sector.
Moreover, the community-driven approach helps in identifying and prioritizing new opportunities. Whether it’s adding support for additional blockchain networks, introducing premium domain services, or developing novel use cases for digital identity management, the $SUIADD-powered DAO allows for continuous improvement and innovation
With the introduction of $SUIADD, SuiAddress not only aims to lead the blockchain name services industry but also to set a precedent for other projects seeking to decentralize governance effectively.

Press Release
ApeUniverse: Leading the new era of Metaverse shopping and digital equity, opening a new channel for wealth growth
Project overview: ApeUniverse is an innovative ecosystem that integrates the Metaverse, virtual shopping and gaming experience, aiming to redefine consumption, social and entertainment methods. Through the MetaMallverse platform, users can enjoy shopping, socializing and entertainment in a virtual environment, connect virtuality with reality, and participate in the virtual economy.
Core concept:
ApeUniverse’s vision is to break through the limitations of traditional e-commerce and create an immersive shopping and social experience based on the Metaverse. Users can not only explore brand stores and products in the virtual world, but also consume through virtual currency, perfectly integrating shopping, socializing and gamification experiences to create a vibrant virtual economy.
Platform functions:
Virtual mall: Users browse and purchase virtual and physical goods in virtual stores and experience immersive shopping.
Gamification experience: By completing tasks and challenges, users can earn virtual currency to purchase goods or participate in the virtual economy.
NFT and digital equity assets:
The ApeUniverse platform allows users to create, buy, sell and trade NFTs (non-fungible tokens). Each NFT is unique and has an unalterable number to ensure its scarcity and unique value. Unlike other platforms, ApeUniverse’s NFTs not only represent virtual collectibles, but also a symbol of company equity. By purchasing NFTs, each user is actually participating in the company’s equity investment. With the company’s successful listing on the capital market in the future, NFT holders will receive corresponding equity dividends and truly enjoy the economic returns brought by the platform’s growth.
The role of equity:
Users holding ApeUniverse NFTs are equivalent to owning part of the company’s equity. This not only means that users can participate in the operation and development of the platform, but also enjoy equity dividends after the company’s profitability. Each NFT is linked to the company’s actual equity. When the company’s performance improves, the holder will share the company’s profit dividends according to the proportion of shares.
Company dividends and equity recovery:
At ApeUniverse, we not only provide users with innovative virtual experiences, but also give every NFT holder the opportunity to become a shareholder of the company. Through a unique dividend mechanism, users will grow with the company and enjoy a portion of the company’s revenue dividends, truly achieving a win-win situation for the platform and users. With the company’s listing, shareholder equity will increase significantly. The company promises to repurchase users’ NFTs at the equity price after listing, for example: (Currently each NFT is worth 5000 PRK, which may rise to 50000 PRK after listing in the future)
This innovative equity repurchase mechanism not only makes NFT a virtual asset, but also transforms it into a high-return financial instrument. Through dividends and equity appreciation, users are no longer just spectators, but participants who move towards success with the company. ApeUniverse is committed to creating a healthy and prosperous ecosystem, allowing every user to realize asset appreciation through NFT and truly share the company’s brilliant future achievements.
Through this innovative equity model, ApeUniverse will incentivize users to participate in the platform and drive market growth, while providing users with the opportunity to achieve long-term benefits in the virtual economy.
Business Model:
Physical Goods Sales: Users can use the virtual currency won in the game to purchase physical goods, opening up consumption channels between virtual and real.
Advertising and Brand Cooperation: Brands can display advertisements and hold virtual press conferences in ApeUniverse to directly reach target consumers around the world.
NFT Market:
Users can purchase and trade NFTs, participate in virtual mining, obtain rare assets and promote the economic cycle of the platform.
Technical Architecture ApeUniverse ensures the security of virtual assets through blockchain, and uses AI to provide personalized shopping recommendations to enhance the platform user experience.
Project Vision:
ApeUniverse is not only committed to becoming the world’s preferred shopping and entertainment platform, but also to providing real financial returns to every NFT holder. The company plans to be listed on Nasdaq in the future. Early users who hold NFTs will become shareholders of the company and enjoy the dividends of platform development, truly achieving the triple benefits of participation, experience and profit.
