Liberty Defense (TSXV:SCAN) demonstrated its HEXWAVE threat detection system at an open house and aviation trade show.

Following the TSA’s recent mandate for screening of aviation workers for explosive materials, HEXWAVE was on display at the Annual American Association of Airport Executives (AAAE) Conference & Exposition for airports, small and large.

Liberty showcased its commercial HEXWAVE walkthrough people screening portal, which is currently in production at its headquarters in Wilmington, Massachusetts, to a group of current and potential customers who are leaders in multiple targeted urban security verticals in need of enhanced threat detection and seamless on-person screening.

HEXWAVE’s capabilities include:

  • Continuous flow of screening without having to pause or stop
  • No divesting of benign items like cell phones, keys, and wallets
  • Detection of metallic and non-metallic threats like 3D printed guns, liquid, and plastic explosives
  • Automated detection with threat location on the resolution station for ease of clearing alarms
  • Quick set up and portability of the system
  • 100 per cent operational availability

Liberty Defense’s CEO, Bill Frain called the feedback received from key industry leaders at this aviation event “extremely valuable”.

“We heard from a Category I airport director that, ‘We are faced with having to quickly implement screening protocols for aviation workers at all access points for employees. This can be very manual intensive and expensive. The fact that the HEXWAVE can automatically detect explosive threats at high throughput rates is a big advantage. Plus, the mobility of the system will allow us the flexibility to screen at various locations’.”

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. The company is currently in sales discussions and Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) recently held a customer evaluation of the HEXWAVE system for potential use conducting employee screening at its airport facilities.
