The Manchester,
NH, airport will deploy the HEXWAVE walkthrough security
detection portal to
seamlessly screen for the Aviation Worker Screening
Initiative.
WILMINGTON, Mass. and MANCHESTER, NH, May 28, 2024
/CNW/ - Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd. ("Liberty"
or the "Company") (TSXV: SCAN) (OTCQB: LDDFF) (FRANKFURT:
LD2A), a leading technology provider of AI-based next generation
detection solutions for concealed weapons and threats, is pleased
to announce that its HEXWAVE system was selected by
Manchester-Boston Regional Airport ("MHT" or the
"Airport") to deploy the HEXWAVE to meet the TSA's
National Amendment for Aviation Worker Security Screening.
Strategically situated in the heart of New England,
Manchester-Boston Regional Airport is located less than fifty miles
north of Boston, Massachusetts,
and less than an hour's drive from the region's most popular ski
areas, scenic seacoast beaches and peaceful lakefront resorts. MHT
is the premier aviation gateway for the region and was recently
named #1 Best Domestic Airport in the country by Travel + Leisure's
World's Best Awards 2023.
With the recent release of the TSA mandate to implement
screening for aviation workers, airports will need technologies
that provide a broad range of threat detection that can meet the
current screening requirements and those mandated for the
future.
"As industry leaders, we are excited to acquire the HEXWAVE
system to use in our broader airport security program," said MHT
Airport Director Ted Kitchens,
A.A.E. "The portability of the HEXWAVE solution will provide
enhanced security in non-traditional areas of the airport. We are
excited to work with Liberty Defense, as we are continually looking
to innovate and improve the overall safety of our airport."
Unlike weapon detection technology, HEXWAVE uses millimeter
wave, advanced 3D imaging and AI to detect all types of concealed
metallic and non-metallic threats and other prohibited items –
without the passenger having to divest common items. The system
allows for rapid, automated screening using a high-throughput,
contactless, walkthrough portal to detect liquid, powder and
plastic explosives, 3D printed ghost guns and other threats of
concern today that enhanced metal detectors on the market cannot
detect.
"We are thrilled that MHT has selected Liberty Defense and
the HEXWAVE as the screening solution for the Aviation Worker
Program," said Bill Frain, CEO of
Liberty Defense. "The flexibility and portability of the HEXWAVE
allows the Airport to quickly deploy and move the HEXWAVE to
help meet security screening requirements to areas inside the
Airport. We are thrilled to work with them on their continued
aviation industry innovation."
