The TSA, an agency of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, is responsible for airline passenger security screening conducted at airports in the United States. TSA's On-Person Screening program aims to detect a growing range of threats, with fewer false alarms and less physical contact with travelers. In addition to enhanced detection, the HD-AIT body scanners are anticipated to help improve passenger experience and move people through the checkpoint more seamlessly.

"We continue to work closely with TSA on this critical initiative to help develop the next generation of passenger screening," says Liberty CEO Bill Frain. "The upgrade kit will provide future state capability at the checkpoint, with the focus on detecting more threats and providing an overall better experience for the traveling public."

Liberty previously licensed millimeter wave-based, High-Definition Advanced Imaging Technology (HD-AIT) body scanner and shoe screener technologies in March of 2021. Both technologies were developed by researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), funded by U.S. Department of Homeland Security Science and Technology Directorate (DHS S&T) on behalf of the Transportation Security Administration mission. Liberty is now developing the technology in house with its experienced team of engineers.
