Liberty Defense to beef up security at Toronto Pearson

Mr. Bill Frain reports

LIBERTY DEFENSE RECEIVES CONTRACT FROM THE GREATER TORONTO AIRPORTS AUTHORITY TO PROVIDE ENHANCED SCREENING WITH HEXWAVE

Liberty Defense Holdings Ltd.'s Hexwave system has been selected by the Greater Toronto Airports Authority (GTAA) to determine how its capability can be used and deployed at Toronto Pearson International Airport, Canada's largest airport.

"As industry leaders, we are excited to be the first airport in the world to acquire the Hexwave system to evaluate how best to use in our broader airport security program," said Dwayne MacIntosh, director, corporate safety and security, GTAA. "We plan to roll out the use of Hexwave in the second half of this year, working with airport stakeholders to assess the best locations to provide enhanced security and an improved screening experience in non-traditional areas of the airport. We are excited to work with Liberty Defense, as we are continually looking to innovate and improve the overall safety of our airport."

Unlike weapon detection technology, Hexwave uses millimetre-wave, advanced three-dimensional imaging and artificial intelligence to detect all types of concealed metallic and non-metallic threats and other prohibited items -- without the passenger having to divest common items. The system allows for rapid, automated screening using a high-throughput, contactless, walkthrough portal to detect liquid, powder and plastic explosives, three-dimensional-printed ghost guns, and other threats of concern today that enhanced metal detectors on the market cannot detect.

"We are thrilled that the GTAA has selected Liberty Defense to bring the Hexwave to the Toronto Pearson airport," said Bill Frain, chief executive officer of Liberty Defense. "The flexibility of the Hexwave allows the GTAA to quickly deploy and move the Hexwave to areas inside and outside the airport. We are thrilled to work with them on their continued aviation-industry innovation."
