Below is a press release from Wilmington-based Liberty Defense:
WILMINGTON, MA — Liberty Defense Holdings, a leading technology provider of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based next generation detection solutions for protecting secure locations against prohibited weapons and other threats, is pleased to announce that it has received a follow on contract award to support a high profile security screening program for high throughput mass transit systems. As previously announced, the Company delivered a HEXWAVE system to be integrated into a larger layered security system implementation currently under development. Liberty will be integrating a multi sensor application from the HEXWAVE to this platform to enhance the performance of the layered security approach for this program.
HEXWAVE uses millimeter wave, advanced 3D imaging and AI to detect concealed metallic and non-metallic threats and other prohibited 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 contraband that enhanced metal detectors on the market do not detect.
“We continue to see demand for the HEXWAVE and it’s multi sensor capabilities across various market verticals,” says Liberty CEO Bill Frain. “This is a perfect implementation for the HEXWAVE as we can provide multiple forms of data to enhance the detection and overall performance of an integrated security screening platform.”
Liberty has deployed it’s HEXWAVE technology for aviation screening, correctional facilities, protection of national laboratories, and other critical infrastructure applications.
