LD2A Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd

Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd. (“Liberty” or the “Company”) (TSXV: SCAN, OTCQB: LDDFF, FRANKFURT: LD2A), a leading technology provider of AI-based next generation detection solutions for concealed weapons and threats, is pleased to announce that the High-Definition Advanced Imaging Technology (HD-AIT) upgrade kit was granted a formal waiver authorization approval from the FCC, another important milestone for its ultra-wideband high definition imaging technology.

“This marks another significant milestone for Liberty’s HD-AIT advanced product development as we move toward finalizing the commercialization of this technology, with the potential to upgrade existing body scanners at U.S. airports,” said Bill Frain, Liberty’s CEO. “In September we announced the continued funding from the Transportation Security Administration to complete the development and eventual rollout of the technology. This will enable us to achieve an unparalleled level of security screening and throughput as passenger traffic continues to grow at airports.”

Radio Frequency devices are required to be properly authorized before marketing the product in the United States. The Office of Engineering and Technology (OET) administers the equipment authorization program under the authority delegated to it by the Commission. This program is one of the principal ways the Commission ensures that RF devices used in the United States operate effectively without causing harmful interference and otherwise comply with the Commission’s rules. All RF devices subject to equipment authorization must comply with the Commission’s technical requirements prior to importation or marketing. This certainly can prove to be a barrier to entry in the securities market.

Liberty licensed millimeter wave-based HD-AIT body scanner and shoe screener technologies in March of 2021. Both technologies were developed by researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, funded by U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate on behalf of the Transportation Security Administration mission. Liberty is now developing the technology in house with its experienced team of engineers.
