Liberty Receives Formal Approval from Canadian Government for Immediate Deployment of HEXWAVE

VANCOUVER, BC and WILMINGTON, Mass., April 15, 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 the HEXWAVE™ product was granted a formal equipment authorization approval from the Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED), another important milestone for Liberty's ultra-wideband technology. This certification allows the Company to deploy HEXWAVE for commercial and government applications throughout Canada.

Liberty's HEXWAVE product, a next generation, walkthrough, contactless threat detection system uses low-power radar imaging, coupled with AI and computing platform, to detect concealed metallic and non-metallic threats at speed, providing automated decisions to security operators. The company has sold the HEXWAVE to multiple market verticals including aviation, courthouses, national labs, prisons, and government facilities.

Radio Frequency devices are required to be properly authorized before marketing and deploying the product in Canada. ISED Canada certification is a mandatory process for any radio equipment that wants to be sold or imported into Canada. This certification ensures that the equipment meets all the technical requirements and safety standards set by ISED Canada. This certainly can prove to be a barrier to entry in the securities market.

"This is an important milestone for HEXWAVE, allowing the Company to deliver product into Canada, a growing market for enhanced on person screening applications" said Bill Frain, Liberty's CEO. "We already have orders in the region and plan to start delivering units in April given this important certification."

In addition, the Company's Chairman and Executive Director, Daryl Rebeck, will be presenting a Company update at the International Investment Forum (IIF) at 1:00 EST on April 17^th, 2024. Please feel free to register now at:
