HEXWAVE will be deployed at a Juvenile
Correctional Facility in Chile
WILMINGTON, Mass., May 8, 2024
/CNW/ - Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd. ("Liberty" or the
"Company") (TSXV: SCAN) (OTCQB: LDDFF) (FRANKFURT: LD2A), a
leading technology provider of Artificial Intelligence (AI) based
next generation detection solutions to protect secure
locations against prohibited weapons and other threats, is pleased
to announce that its HEXWAVE™ system has been purchased by a
Juvenile Correctional Facility in Santiago, Chile, with deployment scheduled for
this summer.
The system was purchased by Setronix Chile S.A., a leading
security company with over 30 years of experience deploying and
maintaining cutting-edge technology solutions for security
applications throughout Chile. The
system will be operated by SENAME, the National Minors' Service
(Servicio Nacional de Menores), a government agency managed by the
Ministry of Justice and Human Rights. The technology will use it to
secure a juvenile correctional facility in Chile.
HEXWAVE is a next-generation, walkthrough, contactless threat
detection system that uses low-power radar imaging, coupled with AI
and an advanced computing platform, to rapidly detect concealed
threats. It provides automated go/no-go decision support to
security operators and can detect all types of concealed weapons,
including metal and non-metal weapons, plastics, powders, and other
prohibited items.
HEXWAVE is seeing growing adoption in multiple market verticals
requiring high levels of security including courthouses, national
labs, prisons, government facilities, and ports of entry in
aviation and other sectors. HEXWAVE provides a safe and efficient
screening solution for juveniles as an alternative to transmission
X-rays.
"This is an important award for Liberty as we expand our
customer base internationally and into Latin America," said Bill Frain, CEO of Liberty Defense. We won this
tender based on HEXWAVE's mobility and its ability to safely and
efficiently screen for a broad range of threats and prohibited
items to secure the safety of all within the correctional facility.
We are confident this will lead to more adoption throughout
Chile."
With facilities at Arturo Merino Benítez Airport, Setronix
Chilie S.A. is strategically positioned to support security-based
operations both in Santiago and in
other parts of the country.
SENAME, Ministry of Justice and Human Rights, is a government
agency in Chile focused on safety
and security in juvenile justice and reintegration. It cares for
adolescents and young people who have been in conflict with the law
between the ages of 14 and 17.
