Liberty Defense’s (TSXV:SCAN) HEXWAVE technology has been enhanced to include screening of concealed metallic and non-metallic threats. 

Liberty Defense President and CTO Michael Lanzaro explained in a news release that, unlike systems that rely on metallic signatures, his team has chosen to solve a problem that no others have: one that includes the creation of millimeter wave imagery and AI threat detection algorithms.

“We’ve developed the world’s first threat detection platform that detects metallic and non-metallic threats, including 3D printed ghost guns and liquid, powder, or plastic explosives, while allowing for people to continuously flow through the system. And all without the need to divest benign items such as keys, wallets, and mobile phones,” Lanzaro said. “Our team of talented engineers, many of whom were responsible for the development and deployment of airport millimetre wave systems, are excited to be introducing the continuous flow configuration as part of our initial production release, increasing people throughput while eliminating the need to turn and pause in the system.”

The imaging can capture higher resolution millimetre wave image data, combined with advanced AI detection algorithms to now exceed 100 terabytes, which is used to train the algorithms for the optimal detection of metallic and non-metallic threats.

The company’s walkthrough screening system is currently in production to support existing orders that will be delivered this summer.

Along with existing orders, the company is actively quoting to meet demand in the urban / commercial security market and U.S. aviation to meet the new TSA aviation worker screening program needs.

HEXWAVE’s capabilities include:

Liberty Defense provides multi-technology security solutions for concealed weapons detection in high volume foot traffic areas and locations requiring enhanced security such as airports, stadiums, schools, and more. Liberty’s HEXWAVE product provides discrete, modular, and scalable protection to provide layered, stand-off detection capability of metallic and non-metallic weapons.
