MINNEAPOLIS, Aug. 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Image Sensing Systems, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Autoscope Technologies Corporation (OTCQX:AATC), announced today the introduction of Autoscope Analytics, a data insights platform that serves as a pivotal tool in the ongoing endeavor to accelerate communities' advancement toward Vision Zero. By harnessing cutting-edge AI technology, Autoscope Analytics empowers communities to swiftly and decisively implement safety measures, thus making significant strides towards the overarching goal of achieving zero traffic-related fatalities and severe injuries.

"Our mission is to save lives faster," said Seth Anderson, Director of Innovation. "Autoscope Analytics is designed to accelerate the entire process of diagnosis, treatment, and assessment, ensuring a more efficient path to Vision Zero. The faster treatments get deployed, the more opportunity there is to prevent injuries or loss of life."

Beyond enabling communities to move faster toward their safety goals, we believe foundational traffic data, such as vehicle counts, Vulnerable Roadway User (VRU) counts, and vehicle operating speed data, should be readily available to communities of all sizes and resources. Thus, with Autoscope Analytics, we are removing barriers to accessing this critical information and offering it for free. This action embodies our dedication to safety and accessibility, serving as a facilitator of positive change with its diverse range of insights tailored to address the unique needs of various roadway safety programs.

To experience Autoscope Analytics' transformative capabilities, we invite you to visit us at the upcoming ITS California booth #203, which will be held from August 26 to 27 in San Francisco, CA.

Forward-looking statements represent our expectations or beliefs concerning future events and can be identified by the use of forward-looking words such as "believes," "may," "will," "should," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "expects," "anticipates" or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Some factors that might cause these differences include the factors listed below. Although we have attempted to list these factors comprehensively, we wish to caution investors that other factors may prove to be important in the future and may affect our operating results. New factors may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible to predict all of these factors, nor can we assess the effect each factor or combination of factors may have on our business.

Those risks and uncertainties may include, but are not limited to, our historical dependence on a single product for most of our revenue; competition; potential changes in government spending on transportation technology; acceptance of our product offerings and designs; budget constraints by governmental entities that purchase our products, including constraints caused by declining tax revenue; the continuing ability of Econolite Control Products, Inc. to sell our products and pay royalties owed to us; the mix of and margins on the products we sell; our dependence on third parties for manufacturing and marketing our products; our dependence on single-source suppliers to meet manufacturing needs; our failure to secure adequate protection for our intellectual property rights; our inability to develop new applications and product enhancements; the potential disruptive effect on the markets we serve of new and emerging technologies and applications, including vehicle-to-vehicle communications and autonomous vehicles; unanticipated delays, costs and expenses inherent in the development and marketing of new products; our inability to respond to low-cost local competitors; our inability to properly manage any growth in revenue and/or production requirements; the influence over our voting stock by affiliates; our inability to hire and retain key scientific and technical personnel; the effects of legal matters in which we may become involved; our inability to achieve and maintain effective internal controls; our inability to successfully integrate any acquisitions; tariffs and other trade barriers; our operating results fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to, among other reasons, the fact that our operating costs tend to be fixed, while our revenue tends to be seasonal; any significant variations between actual amounts and the amounts estimated for those matters identified as our critical accounting estimates and other significant accounting estimates made in the preparation of our financial statements; political and economic instability, including continuing volatility in the economic and political environment of the European Union and the war in Ukraine, and the conflict between Israel and Hamas; our inability to comply with international regulatory restrictions over hazardous substances and electronic waste; the impact of international supply chain disruptions and delays; the impact of changes in U.S. federal and state income tax regulations; the impact of inflation and our ability to pass on rising prices to its customers; and conditions beyond our control such as war, terrorist attacks, health epidemics (including the COVID-19 pandemic caused by the coronavirus) and economic recession.

We further caution you not to unduly rely on any forward-looking statements because they reflect our views only as of the date the statements were made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
