Liberty Defense revealed that its HEXWAVE system successfully demonstrated comprehensive detection at courthouses and correctional facilities.
The capability included the detection of concealed metallic and non-metallic threats with minimal false alarms.
The company states that 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.
Liberty explains that the scenario-based testing was directed by Fitzgerald Technology Group, internationally recognized for their subject matter expertise in Government Security and Public Safety planning.
Bill Frain, CEO, Liberty Defense commented: “Over the course of three days at a major US courthouse, we successfully demonstrated the capabilities of HEXWAVE to FTG, senior leadership, law enforcement and security personnel.
“HEXWAVE underwent rigorous testing and consistently detected a wide range of concealed threats, including 3D-printed firearms, ceramic knives, detonators, tasers masked as cell phones and various forms of explosives such as liquids, gels, powders and plastics, along with other common prohibited items.
“We are aligned in our commitment to ensuring the safety of both visitors and staff in correctional facilities by proactively preventing potential incidents,” Frain concluded.
W Douglas Fitzgerald, President and CEO, Fitzgerald Technology Group stated: “With the constantly evolving threat-based risk that facilities and events face today we see the advantages to the utilization of millimeter wave detection and imaging and were impressed with the capabilities of the HEXWAVE and its response to many of the tests that we conducted.
