JACKSONVILLE, FL / ACCESSWIRE / November 7, 2019 / Duos Technologies Group, Inc. ('Duos' or the 'Company') (OTCQX:DUOT), through its operating subsidiary Duos Technologies, Inc., a provider of intelligent analytical technology solutions, has been awarded a contract for a turn-key Rail Inspection Portal (rip®) with an additional North American Class 1 freight railroad client for a total value of $1.8 million. Installation is expected to be completed by the end of 2019. This latest award is indicative of an increasing trend in the railroad industry of automating railcar mechanical inspections, which have historically been conducted manually.

The award includes a contract for technical support as well as the development and maintenance of a significant library of Artificial Intelligence ('AI') algorithms with the objective of automating certain aspects of the mechanical inspection process.

'Our rip® technology substantially improves the efficacy of inspections through automated, high-resolution, 360-degree imaging of railcars passing through our inspection portal, and it also incorporates a myriad of proprietary critical security features,' stated Scott Carns, Executive Vice President and interim-COO of the Company's wholly owned operating subsidiary Duos Technologies, Inc. 'We believe monitoring and maintaining the structural health of railcars and their operating environment is of critical importance to the security, safety and efficiency of railroad operation. These areas are the paramount focus of today's global rail industry.'

Duos CEO Gianni Arcaini added, 'We continue to build our railcar inspection vertical with both the freight and transit railroads in mind. In the years ahead, we expect further growth from our rail technology business to come from other automation projects with an emphasis on our Artificial Intelligence program. Our subsidiary truevue360™ is expanding our library of AI-based automated inspection strategies which we believe represents a significant growth opportunity, and differentiator, for the Company in this space. Our advanced, engineered rail inspection technologies, combined with our artificial intelligence capabilities, represent what we believe is a complete solution for transportation applications.'
