Trackforce and Scylla Partner to Connect AI Detection, Guard Dispatch & Incident Resolution

Business Wire21-05-2025
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Trackforce, a global leader in security workforce management software, today announced an industry-first partnership with Scylla, an AI video surveillance company, that connects AI-powered threat detection directly into security workforce workflows to give security providers a faster, smarter, and fully integrated way to identify, dispatch, resolve, and bill incidents.
The security industry historically struggles with siloed systems, creating gaps between threat identification and immediate physical response. As security providers modernize their operations, this integration tackles two critical challenges: reducing the high rate of false-positive alerts that drain resources and improving situational awareness for guards responding to incidents. By filtering out non-critical events before dispatch and equipping responders with AI-verified incident details, the partnership helps security teams allocate personnel more effectively, respond faster to real threats, and enhance the safety and preparedness of guards in the field.
'This is a direct response to what our customers have been asking for,' said Byron McDuffee, CEO of Trackforce. 'With labor shortages and high false-positive rates straining security teams, this partnership gives our clients a smarter way to deploy their skilled guards more efficiently. By embedding Scylla's AI into our workflows, we're helping customers boost situational awareness, speed up response times, and streamline administrative processes like billing, reporting, and accountability.'
The combined solution bridges Scylla's smart event detection capabilities with the newly launched TrackTik Command Center. Whether identifying an active shooter on a camera feed or detecting an intrusion at a critical infrastructure site via drones, verified incidents are instantly pushed into the TrackTik platform, triggering automated response protocols. This eliminates manual handoffs, reduces response times, and ensures complete visibility from detection through resolution.
'The security industry has been reactive for too long. Seeing threats but lacking the ability to respond quickly and effectively is more than an issue,' said Albert Stepanyan, founder and CEO of Scylla. 'Together with Trackforce, we're changing that dynamic by providing complete situational awareness and faster response coordination, helping security teams move from passive monitoring to proactive intervention.'
By fusing detection and response, this first-of-its-kind integration provides security service providers with a full closed-loop system, reducing risks, streamlining operations, and enabling new high-margin services like remote guarding and drone response. It is especially powerful for industries like data centers, energy, critical infrastructure, commercial real estate, high-net-worth residential, and automotive dealerships, where proactive threat detection and rapid incident resolution are critical to protecting investments and maintaining business continuity.

Unitree's R1 brings smart humanoid robots within reach

Unitree Robotics has launched the R1, a remarkable humanoid robot capable of walking, running, dancing, cartwheeling, and even kung-fu kicks. It can also respond to voice commands and hold basic spoken conversations using integrated, AI-powered speech recognition, and process visual inputs via its built-in cameras. Even more remarkable is its price: $5,900. China-based Unitree has designed the R1 as an affordable, lightweight humanoid robot and is aiming it at developers, tech enthusiasts, research labs, and educational institutions, though actually anyone can buy it. It's not clear if Unitree has any particular ambitions for the practical use of the R1, but that's partly why it's making it available to one and all, as developers will no doubt be keen to see what they can get it doing. A home help? Perhaps. Face-to-robot-face customer service at malls, airports, and hotels? Maybe. Entertainers? That already looks like a safe bet. The R1 humanoid robot stands at 47.6 inches (1.21 meters) tall and tips the scales at 55 pounds (25 kg). As you can see from the footage in the video at the top of this page, the robot is extremely versatile, thanks in part to its 26 functional joints, which, to be frank, is more than what many humans have the day after some particularly strenuous exercise. The R1 is powered by a lithium battery, but at the current time it can only offer one hour of operation before it needs charging. Sadly, unlike Ubtech's Walker S2 robot, it can't swap out its own batteries, so you'll have to do that yourself. Importantly, it also comes with a remote control, so you can quickly turn it off in the unlikely event that it suddenly goes rogue. Notably, the R1 costs considerably less than Unitree's more complex G1, another humanoid robot that it released last year for $16,000. Compared to the G1, the R1 has been deliberately designed to be a simpler humanoid robot suitable for educational and light research use. Unitree is one of a growing number of tech firms globally that are developing smart, agile, bipedal robots. The technology has improved dramatically in recent years, with many companies eyeing them for industrial use where they can work alongside human workers, though of course many suggest that at some point those human workers will be replaced.
