Key Points

  • Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd. ships Hexwave systems to a major Canadian airport for screening applications.
  • Hexwave employs millimeter-wave, advanced 3D imaging, and AI to detect concealed metallic and non-metallic threats without requiring passengers to remove common items.
  • The system provides rapid, contactless screening for various threats including explosives, ghost guns, and other prohibited items, enhancing security in airports and other high-traffic locations.

Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd. has shipped Hexwave systems to a major airport in Canada for various screening applications.

Unlike weapon detection technology, Hexwave uses millimetre wave, advanced 3-D imaging and AI (artificial intelligence) 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, 3-D printed ghost guns and other threats of concern today that enhanced metal detectors on the market cannot detect.

“We are thrilled that we are delivering our next-generation technology for a layered security approach in an airport setting,” said Bill Frain, chief executive officer of Liberty Defense. “The flexibility of the Hexwave allows for quick deployment and movement of the Hexwave to areas inside and outside the airport. We look forward to working with the airport on their continued aviation industry innovation.”
