Liberty Defense, a provider of AI-based detection solutions for concealed weapons and threats, has announced that it has entered into a strategic, non-exclusive distribution agreement with Calgary, Alberta-based K′(Prime) Technologies.
According to Liberty Defense, the collaboration will enable its HEXWAVE solution to be introduced into the Canadian aviation and urban security market.
K′(Prime) has over 20 years of experience in the sale, rental and service of security equipment.
As part of the distribution agreement, K′(Prime) will add the HEXWAVE walkthrough people screening system, which uses AI and machine learning to detect weapons and other threats in real-time, to its security equipment and services portfolio.
“We are excited to partner with Liberty Defense to bring HEXWAVE technology to the Canadian aviation and urban security market,” said Marc Tomlinson, K′(Prime)’s President.
“One of the primary reasons we partnered with Liberty Defense to sell the HEXWAVE system is the company’s shared commitment to innovation, meaningful results and customer satisfaction; all of which will greatly benefit aviation and urban security across Canada.
“We are deeply honored to provide best-in-class security technology. The HEXWAVE system was selected as the perfect complement to our existing imaging and security services program, and we believe that incorporating cutting-edge walkthrough screening technology to detect non-metallic and metallic threats to security will help existing and new customers stay ahead of tomorrow’s security risks.”
“We’re thrilled to collaborate with K′(Prime), a respected leader in Canada’s security sector,” said Bill Frain, CEO of Liberty Defense.
“It was clear after a visit to our Wilmington facility that we have a shared vision of advancing next-generation detection technologies while improving the overall security experience.
“We’re proud that K′(Prime) selected the HEXWAVE system to strengthen their aviation and urban security capabilities, especially in detecting emerging threats like non-metallic explosives and 3D-printed ghost guns.
“With K′(Prime)’s strong presence in aviation services across Canada, we look forward to expanding our market reach and driving meaningful revenue growth through this partnership.”
