Liberty Defense has announced the award of multiple HEXWAVE systems at one of the largest international airports in the US, for the conducting of Aviation Worker Screening.
According to the company, this prominent international airport, one of the largest in the world, serves tens of millions of passengers per year and has tens of thousands of employees.
Following the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA) National Amendment on Aviation Worker Screening, the airport was required to implement on-person screening technologies for aviation workers that provide a broad range of threat and explosive detection capabilities.
The company says that implementation of HEXWAVE within this airport will enable fast, contactless threat detection, enhancing security while streamlining the screening experience.
Using millimeter wave technology, advanced 3D imaging and AI, HEXWAVE can detect both metallic and non-metallic threats – including liquid, plastic and powder explosives, 3D-printed weapons and other prohibited items.
Liberty Defense emphasises that the high-throughput, walkthrough system delivers automated, real-time detection.
“We’re leading the transformation of security screening through next-generation technology that delivers both safety and scalability,” said Bill Frain, CEO of Liberty Defense.
“The integration of our HEXWAVE platform represents an important step toward modernizing threat detection across aviation, critical infrastructure and commercial markets.
“With its AI-driven, contactless design and ability to detect a wide range of concealed threats, HEXWAVE offers a powerful solution to meet the evolving demands of global security.”
