A leading technology provider of AI-based next-generation detection solutions for concealed weapons and threats, Liberty Defense (TSXV:SCAN), is highlighting the recent announcement of a potential US$1 trillion budget to focus on U.S. national defense spending.

The Trump Administration has announced that, for the first time in American history, they will request US$1 trillion for U.S. defence and that they “intend to spend every taxpayer dollar wisely.” This unprecedented budget proposal signifies two critical points:

  1. Recognition of increased threat environment: The government acknowledges the massively increased and varied threat environment that the United States will face in the coming decades. This includes both traditional and emerging threats that require advanced detection and prevention measures.
  2. Enhanced protection needs: It follows that our servicemen and women, civilian employees, facilities, and national secrets will need enhanced protection. This includes a new generation of personnel screening for metallic and non-metallic threats that is safer, more cost-effective, and more convenient.

The company is in a stable position to contribute to this enhanced protection with its cutting-edge AI-based detection solutions. Its technology is designed to identify concealed weapons and threats with high accuracy, providing another layer of security in various environments, from military bases to public venues.

“This is where Liberty Defense, a U.S.-based manufacturing company, comes in. We are a leader in next generation, security screening technology to detect concealed threats in all verticals,” Liberty’s president, Bryan Cunningham, said in a news release. “The need for security measures to protect lives in public spaces has never been greater. Armed with licensed technologies from leading security and defence research institutions, Liberty Defense’s experienced management team is positioned to bring contactless and mobile security to public and private spaces to solve challenging problems of screening people for firearms, explosives and IEDs. Liberty’s screening solutions make all of us safer and more secure, while also enhancing convenience and quality of life for everyone having to visit airports, government and private-sector facilities, places of worship, and events requiring human screening capabilities — in short, everyone.”

Vancouver-based Liberty Defense Holdings provides multi-technology security solutions for concealed weapon detection in areas such as airports, stadiums, schools and more.

Liberty Defense Holdings stock (TSXV:SCAN) opened trading at $0.42.
