Liberty Defense Holdings, Ltd. is a security technology provider focused on next-generation threat detection systems for high-traffic public and private spaces. The company's core offering is the HEXWAVE system, a walk-through security portal that leverages active 3D radar imaging, millimeter-wave technology, and artificial intelligence to detect concealed weapons and threats. Unlike traditional metal detectors, HEXWAVE can identify both metallic and non-metallic objects, including 3D-printed guns, liquid, plastic, and powder explosives, without requiring individuals to divest common items like cell phones or keys. The technology is based on an exclusive license from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Lincoln Laboratory. In addition to HEXWAVE, Liberty Defense offers a High-Definition Advanced Imaging Technology (HD-AIT) Upgrade Kit, which provides millimeter wave-based body and shoe scanning capabilities designed to enhance aviation checkpoint security. The company generates revenue primarily through the sale of its HEXWAVE systems and related contract work, targeting sectors such as aviation, commercial venues, educational institutions, and government facilities. Geographically, Liberty Defense is headquartered in Wilmington, Massachusetts, and focuses its commercialization efforts across the United States and Canada. The company's competitive position is driven by its proprietary AI algorithms and advanced imaging capabilities, which provide a layered, stand-off detection approach to counter evolving urban threats while maintaining high throughput in busy environments.
