LONDON, January 18, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
There have been several shifts in the defense industry over the last few years. The reason for some of the changes is the

global defense trade increased at a record pace last year, with the value of the market growing to $65
billion in 2015. The United States has remained the largest exporter for defense

A major portion of the defense market is the radar systems. This market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.39% from 2016 to
2021 according to a report by Marketsandmarkets. The report indicates that based on application, the radar systems market has
been segmented into defense and commercial. The commercial radar segment is expected to lead the radar systems market in 2016.
The radar systems market has been segmented into short, medium, and long range radars. Long range segments are the largest share
to the whole market, as they are in demand by defense sector in several countries.
Patriot One Technologies Inc. (TSX-V: PAT.V) (OTCQB: PTOTF) has developed a system which is an innovative radar
technology designed to warn first responders and security personnel in Active Threat scenarios. The technology offers stand-off
detection of concealed weapons typically employed in public locations. The company claims that what makes the technology unique
is its 'cognitive' ability to detect guns and knives as well as to assess threats. The system, called the NForce CMR1000, is
trained prior to installation and continues to learn upon deployment, getting better and smarter at detecting hidden weapons with
each screening instance.
Patriot One Technologies Inc. was mentioned on FoxNews.com that, some nightclubs in Orlando
are looking to deploy radar-based weapons detection technology in the aftermath of last year's deadly mass shooting at a gay
nightclub, Pulse. Weapons detection specialist Patriot One Technologies announced on Tuesday that
it is partnering with VGroup Concepts to launch a 'Safe Districts' initiative. VGroup Concepts is a management company of several
restaurants and clubs in Orlando. A major challenge for locations such as schools, clubs and
stadiums, is that they often have limited security, making them 'soft targets,' according to Patriot One Technologies. The
partnership with VGroup Concepts aims to boost safety at Orlando venues via the company's NForce
CMR 1000 detection system. Read full article here: http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2017/01/17/orlando-nightclubs-deploy-radar-technology-to-detect-weapons.html
Yesterday, Patriot One Technologies announced that it has entered an agreement with VGroup Concepts of Orlando, Florida. The partnership will create a demo showcase of the Company's NForce CMR1000 software
solution and radar device from January 2017 through January 2018. The
parties furthermore agreed to install the NForce CMR1000 solution and radar device at VGroup entertainment properties around the
Orlando area before the end of the term with the ultimate goal of establishing a safe districts
initiative.
CEO & Director of Patriot One Technologies, Martin Cronin, said in a statement, "We are
very excited to partner with VGroup Concepts with our NForce CMR1000 pilot program, and to further help the City of Orlando, Orange County, and the great State of Florida's desire to create the world's safest entertainment center. Our number one goal at Patriot
One is to offer a solution that works with today's security professionals to help deter, detect and defend against active threats
of violence on innocent citizens everywhere."

New Zealand were two of our earlier adopters of TASER weapons that have proven to reduce
injuries to suspects and officers time and time again there. We commend their continuing paths to a world where every officer has
the best technology and training to minimize the chances of a deadly encounter," concluded Smith.
