"Unmanned Security Expo spotlights critical new technology for protecting people and assets in a changing threat landscape," explained ISC Group Vice President, Will Wise. "As awareness and adoption are on the rise, we are excited to be the first ground and aerial robotics event dedicated to physical security & public safety applications. This is a pivotal time to be educating the industry and introducing it to important new technology and service providers. The event features leading brands and important emerging technology in all aspects of autonomous security solutions including ground and aerial robotics, components and power solutions, consulting and services and UAS detection and counter UAS technology."
