We are excited to have Peter on our Advisory Board and look forward to working closely with him."

Mr. Giacalone, President of Giacalone Associates, LLC is a widely respected advisor and consultant focused on the electronic security, physical security, and life safety industries. Throughout Mr. Giacalone's forty-five-year career he has earned great success leading a variety of national Central Station Monitoring Companies, including serving as President of MACE, a division of the well-known pepper spray company. As Chief Operating Officer, Peter led his team to build the largest third-party central station monitoring company in the United States, Criticom International.

Mr. Giacalone is well known for his operational expertise and frequently collaborates with lenders, private equity and the investment community as a Subject Matter Expert lead during operational due diligence.

Ubiety's discussions with Giacalone have focused on Ubiety's go-to-market strategy to deploy its new "presence detection" capabilities, which include the ability to detect the presence of people based on the Radio Frequency signals coming from the devices they are carrying, and the ability to ascertain context and information about the protected environment based on RF activity. These capabilities are based on the combination of Ubiety's novel, patented RF Sensor Platform and its Artificial Intelligence engine which provides state-of-the-art classification/categorization capabilities. Ubiety is working with industry leaders toward OEM, Monitoring and Platform "design wins" that allow their patented AI, software and hardware capabilities to be embedded into existing security systems in homes throughout the world.

"The proliferation of Radio Frequency emitting devices including phones, watches, tablets and wearables makes digital detection, categorization and identification the next generation of security solutions," said Giacalone. "Ubiety's Presence Detection capabilities integrated into security alarm panels and other connected home platforms, including routers, is a no-brainer to unlock massive value for the entire industry. Ubiety's occupant presence data delivers situational awareness about people's presence, including during security alarms. This unique dataset will significantly reduce false alarm rates by providing the context necessary to augment alarm monitoring providers' confirmation, verification, and notification procedures. Considering TMA AVS-01, presence detection is anticipated to be very attractive to the National Alarm Dealers, OEMs, monitoring companies, and software platforms", emphasized Giacalone.
