Athena Security secures patent for AI-powered weapons detection system

Athena Security has announced the issuance of a patent (Patent Link) for its innovative system designed to detect suboptimal performance in weapons detection system security check operations. This marks a step forward in safeguarding the men and women who overlook the safety att the entrances of hospitals, stadiums, casinos, events, schools and other critical facilities.

The patented weapons detection A.I.software uses advanced sensor technology and artificial intelligence to identify potential security breaches, human errors, and equipment malfunctions in real-time. By proactively alerting security personnel to these issues, the software empowers officers to take immediate corrective action, preventing dangerous situations from escalating.

“This is a game-changer for security officers,” said Chris Ciabarra, the co-founder and CTO of Athena Security. “Our AI-powered Weapons Detection Screening software acts as an extra set of eyes and ears, providing invaluable support to officers working in high-pressure environments. By identifying potential threats and vulnerabilities, we’re helping to create a safer world for everyone.”

The system’s capabilities include but not limited to:

• Detecting human errors: The AI weapons detection software can identify instances where security personnel may be performing checks incorrectly or missing potential threats.
• Monitoring equipment performance: The system monitors the proper functioning of weapons detection security equipment, such as metal detectors and X-ray machines, alerting officers to any malfunctions.
• Identifying suspicious behavior: The software can detect unusual behavior patterns (evasion of system) in individuals passing through security checkpoints, potentially indicating malicious intent.
• Providing real-time alerts: The system delivers instant notifications to security personnel, enabling them to respond swiftly and decisively to potential threats. Athena Security’s patented Weapons Detection Screening software has the potential to significantly improve security outcomes at a wide range of venues. By helping to prevent security breaches and protect frontline officers, the software can contribute to a safer and more secure society.
