Liberty Defense Granted Formal Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Waiver for High-Definition AIT Upgrade Kit
Liberty Defense Holdings (OTCQB: LDDFF) has received formal waiver authorization approval from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for its High-Definition Advanced Imaging Technology (HD-AIT) upgrade kit. This milestone advances the commercialization of their ultra-wideband high definition imaging technology for airport security screening.
The company previously received continued funding from the Transportation Security Administration to complete development and eventual rollout of the technology. The HD-AIT body scanner and shoe screener technologies, licensed by Liberty in March 2021, were originally developed by Pacific Northwest National Laboratory researchers with funding from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate.
The FCC approval is significant as Radio Frequency devices must be authorized before marketing in the United States, ensuring they operate without harmful interference and comply with Commission rules.
Liberty Defense Holdings (OTCQB: LDDFF) ha ricevuto l'approvazione formale per la deroga dall'Ufficio delle Comunicazioni Federali (FCC) per il suo kit di aggiornamento della Tecnologia di Immagine Avanzata ad Alta Definizione (HD-AIT). Questo traguardo sostiene la commercializzazione della loro tecnologia di imaging ad alta definizione a banda ultralarga per il controllo di sicurezza negli aeroporti.
L'azienda ha precedentemente ricevuto finanziamenti continui dall'Amministrazione per la Sicurezza dei Trasporti per completare lo sviluppo e la successiva distribuzione della tecnologia. Le tecnologie dello scanner per il corpo HD-AIT e del rilevatore di scarpe, concesse in licenza da Liberty nel marzo 2021, sono state originariamente sviluppate dai ricercatori del Pacific Northwest National Laboratory con finanziamenti dal Direttorato per la Scienza e la Tecnologia del Dipartimento della Sicurezza Nazionale degli Stati Uniti.
L'approvazione della FCC è significativa poiché i dispositivi a Radio Frequenza devono essere autorizzati prima della commercializzazione negli Stati Uniti, assicurando che funzionino senza interferenze dannose e siano conformi alle normative della Commissione.
Liberty Defense Holdings (OTCQB: LDDFF) ha recibido la aprobación formal de autorización de exención de la Comisión Federal de Comunicaciones (FCC) para su kit de actualización de Tecnología de Imágenes Avanzadas en Alta Definición (HD-AIT). Este hito avanza la comercialización de su tecnología de imágenes de alta definición de banda ultraancha para la revisión de seguridad en aeropuertos.
La empresa recibió anteriormente financiación continua de la Administración de Seguridad en el Transporte para completar el desarrollo y eventual implementación de la tecnología. Las tecnologías del escáner corporal HD-AIT y del detector de zapatos, licenciadas por Liberty en marzo de 2021, fueron desarrolladas originalmente por investigadores del Laboratorio Nacional del Noroeste del Pacífico con financiamiento del Directorio de Ciencia y Tecnología del Departamento de Seguridad Nacional de los EE. UU.
La aprobación de la FCC es significativa, ya que los dispositivos de Radiofrecuencia deben ser autorizados antes de su comercialización en los Estados Unidos, asegurando que funcionen sin interferencias perjudiciales y cumplan con las normas de la Comisión.
리버티 디펜스 홀딩스 (OTCQB: LDDFF)는 연방통신위원회(FCC)로부터 고화질 고급 이미지 기술(HD-AIT) 업그레이드 키트에 대한 공식적인 면제 승인을 받았습니다. 이 이정표는 공항 보안 검색을 위한 초광대역 고해상도 이미지 기술 상업화를 더욱 진전시킵니다.
회사는 이전에 교통안전청으로부터 기술 개발 및 최종 배포를 완료하기 위한 지속적인 자금을 받았습니다. 리버티가 2021년 3월에 라이센스를 받은 HD-AIT 바디 스캐너 및 신발 검색기 기술은 미국 국토안보부 과학기술국의 자금 지원으로 태평양 북서부 국립 연구소의 연구자들에 의해 원래 개발되었습니다.
FCC의 승인은 라디오 주파수 장치는 미국에서 판매되기 전에 승인을 받아야 하며, 유해한 간섭 없이 작동하고 위원회의 규정을 준수하도록 보장해야 하므로 중요합니다.
Liberty Defense Holdings (OTCQB: LDDFF) a reçu l'approbation formelle de la Commission Fédérale des Communications (FCC) pour son kit de mise à niveau de la Technologie d'Imagerie Avancée en Haute Définition (HD-AIT). Cette étape fait progresser la commercialisation de leur technologie d'imagerie en haute définition à ultra large bande pour le contrôle de sécurité dans les aéroports.
L'entreprise avait auparavant reçu un financement continu de l'Administration de la Sécurité des Transports pour achever le développement et le déploiement ultérieur de la technologie. Les technologies de scanner corporel HD-AIT et de détecteur de chaussures, licenciées par Liberty en mars 2021, ont été initialement développées par des chercheurs du Laboratoire National du Nord-Ouest du Pacifique avec un financement du Directorate of Science and Technology du Département de la Sécurité Intérieure des États-Unis.
L'approbation de la FCC est significative car les dispositifs à Radiofréquence doivent être autorisés avant d'être commercialisés aux États-Unis, garantissant qu'ils fonctionnent sans interférences nuisibles et qu'ils respectent les règles de la Commission.
Liberty Defense Holdings (OTCQB: LDDFF) hat die formale Genehmigung für einen Verzicht von der Federal Communications Commission (FCC) für das Upgrade-Kit zur Hochauflösenden Fortgeschrittenen Bildgebungstechnologie (HD-AIT) erhalten. Dieser Meilenstein fördert die Kommerzialisierung ihrer ultra-breitbandigen Hochauflösungsbildtechnologie für die Sicherheitskontrolle an Flughäfen.
Das Unternehmen hatte zuvor fortlaufende Mittel von der Transportation Security Administration erhalten, um die Entwicklung und den eventualen Rollout der Technologie abzuschließen. Die HD-AIT Körperscanner- und Schuhscanner-Technologien, die Liberty im März 2021 lizenziert hat, wurden ursprünglich von Forschern des Pacific Northwest National Laboratory mit Mitteln des U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate entwickelt.
Die Genehmigung der FCC ist bedeutsam, da Radiofrequenzgeräte genehmigt werden müssen, bevor sie in den Vereinigten Staaten vermarktet werden, um sicherzustellen, dass sie ohne schädliche Interferenzen arbeiten und den Vorschriften der Kommission entsprechen.
- Received FCC waiver authorization for HD-AIT upgrade kit
- Secured continued TSA funding for technology development and rollout
- Holds license for both body scanner and shoe screener technologies
- None.
WILMINGTON, Mass., Jan. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 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 High-Definition Advanced Imaging Technology (HD-AIT) upgrade kit was granted a formal waiver authorization approval from the FCC, another important milestone for its ultra-wideband high definition imaging technology.
“This marks another significant milestone for Liberty’s HD-AIT advanced product development as we move toward finalizing the commercialization of this technology, with the potential to upgrade existing body scanners at U.S. airports,” said Bill Frain, Liberty’s CEO. “In September we announced the continued funding from the Transportation Security Administration to complete the development and eventual rollout of the technology. This will enable us to achieve an unparalleled level of security screening and throughput as passenger traffic continues to grow at airports.”
Radio Frequency devices are required to be properly authorized before marketing the product in the United States. The Office of Engineering and Technology (OET) administers the equipment authorization program under the authority delegated to it by the Commission. This program is one of the principal ways the Commission ensures that RF devices used in the United States operate effectively without causing harmful interference and otherwise comply with the Commission’s rules. All RF devices subject to equipment authorization must comply with the Commission’s technical requirements prior to importation or marketing. This certainly can prove to be a barrier to entry in the securities market.
Liberty licensed millimeter wave-based HD-AIT body scanner and shoe screener technologies in March of 2021. Both technologies were developed by researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, funded by U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate on behalf of the Transportation Security Administration mission. Liberty is now developing the technology in house with its experienced team of engineers.
