Can Motorola's Advanced Security Solutions Make Future Events Safer?

Motorola Solutions, Inc. MSI provided an integrated communications and security technology ecosystem for the 2026 Central American and Caribbean Games in the Dominican Republic. Its solutions supported the safety and coordination of approximately 6,000 athletes and a vast number of spectators across 46 venues.

Motorola’s WAVE PTX broadband push-to-talk service was used to connect personnel equipped with TLK radios across different venues and devices, addressing communication gaps within complex stadium environments. The platform enabled security and medical teams to communicate effectively and maintain reliable connectivity across multiple locations.

The company also used its cloud-native video security platform with artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled analytics to monitor venues and detect unusual activity and unauthorized access, providing security teams with automated alerts and greater situational awareness. Motorola’s Halo Smart Sensors further strengthened security by detecting acoustic anomalies in areas where video surveillance was unsuitable, including private spaces like bathrooms.

With these deployments, Motorola demonstrated the value of real-time communication and automated security monitoring in managing a large, multi-venue sporting event. By improving situational awareness and enabling faster coordination, the company strengthened its operational efficiency and risk management capabilities.

How Are Competitors Performing in the Security Domain?

Motorola faces competition from Axon Enterprise, Inc. AXON and Cloudastructure Inc. CSAI. Axon has expanded its AI-powered security capabilities through Axon Vision, which helps detect incidents such as unauthorized access and physical altercations from live camera feeds. The company is expanding AI tools to help public-safety personnel access and analyze information more efficiently. Axon is expanding its 911 platform to strengthen cloud-based emergency response services.

Cloudastructure provides AI-powered video surveillance and remote guarding services for commercial and residential properties. The company was selected to deploy its AI surveillance and remote guarding platform across multifamily communities in Arizona. Cloudastructure’s platform uses AI to detect unusual activity and send real-time alerts for faster security response.
