Amber Alert Kiosk Systems, or AAKS, has announced an agreement with WDSC 15, the PBS affiliate station in Daytona, Fla.
Per the deal, Amber Alerts posted on AAKS kiosks also will appear on PBS stations in three counties surrounding the Daytona area. AAKS will reciprocate by posted PBS' severe weather warnings on its kiosk monitors.
According to a news release from AAKS, the Amber Alert kiosks can post an announcement about a missing person within minutes, rather than waiting the standard 24 to 48-hour timeframe. To fund the kiosk deployments, AAKS works with sponsors whose advertisements run on the kiosks' monitors when an Amber alert is not being displayed.
