Canucks Sports and Entertainment owner Francesco Aquilini is an adviser to the firm Liberty Defense Technologies.
The next generation of high-tech security scanners will use advanced radar, 3D imaging and AI to unobtrusively screen sports fans, and the people entering Rogers Arena could be early test subjects for one company’s bid to enter the field.
Canucks Sports and Entertainment owner Francesco Aquilini is an adviser to Liberty Defense and has signed a memorandum-of-understanding to use the arena as a test site, which the companies will be announcing April 15. In HEXWAVE, the images are analyzed via artificial intelligence, which alert security when a threat is detected, and Riker said it will be able to do so in real time as people walk through, unlike existing scanners that require subjects to stop as a device sweeps around them and physical checks that are cumbersome and time-consuming.
Liberty Defense isn’t alone in trying to develop high-tech, high speed scanners in a market that the company estimates will grow to $7.5 billion by 2025.
