The New York Airport will deploy the HEXWAVE™
walkthrough security portal for aviation worker screening
WILMINGTON, MA & ROCHESTER, NY, May 13, 2024 /CNW/ - Liberty
Defense Holdings Ltd. ("Liberty" or the
"Company") (TSXV: SCAN) (OTCQB: LDDFF) (FRANKFURT: LD2A), a
leading provider of next-generation, Artificial Intelligence (AI)
based technologies for the detection of concealed weapons and other
threats, is pleased to announce that its HEXWAVE™ system has been
purchased by a major international airport in New York to support its aviation worker
security screening program.
"We are thrilled to have received the award following a public
tender and to be chose to support the airports aviation worker
screening requirements," said Bill
Frain, CEO of Liberty Defense. "The flexibility and
comprehensive detection capability that HEXWAVE offers are driving
widespread interest in the system from across the aviation sector.
It is highly portable and can be rapidly deployed both indoors and
outdoors to seamlessly facilitate screening in various areas of the
airport."
In April 2023, Transportation
Security Administration (TSA) issued an Airport Security Program
National Amendment, which will require U.S. airport to adopt
physical screening procedures for employees with access to
secure-side areas.
HEXWAVE enables rapid, automated, high-throughput screening
using a contactless, walkthrough portal that can detect a diverse
range of threats well beyond what enhanced metal detectors on the
market can detect. It uses millimeter wave, advanced 3D imaging,
and AI to detect all types of concealed threats, including both
metal and non-metal items, liquids, powders, plastic explosives,
3D-printed ghost guns, and other novel threats or prohibited items
– without the passenger having to divest common items like keys,
wallets, or phones.
