WILMINGTON, Mass., Aug. 13, 2024 /CNW/ - 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 its HEXWAVE systems were delivered to Linev Systems US for deployment at correctional facilities throughout the state of Texas. This is in support of the purchase of 20 HEXWAVE's by the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ). The HEXWAVE units will be deployed at the screening entrances to improve contraband detection capabilities such as weapons, cell phones and drugs while increasing search capacity and consistency.
The selection of Liberty Defense's HEXWAVE technology reaffirms TDCJ's commitment to securing their facilities with a modern-day security approach, ensuring minimized entry wait times and enabling the most secure and safe access for all entering the facilities.
The TDCJ is responsible for the supervision of approximately 155,000 incarcerated inmates. The Texas Department of Corrections contains 51 state prisons along with several other facilities for inmates. Their mission is to provide public safety, promote positive change in inmate behavior, reintegrate inmates into society and assist victims of crime.
HEXWAVE uses millimeter wave, advanced 3D imaging and AI to detect concealed metallic and non-metallic threats and other prohibited items. The system allows for rapid, automated screening using a high-throughput, contactless, walkthrough portal to detect liquid, powder and plastic explosives, 3D printed ghost guns and other contraband that enhanced metal detectors on the market do not detect.
