National labs

Find the phone before it reaches the security area.

HEXWAVE detects phones and similar items concealed on people, along with metallic and non-metallic weapons, and keeps every screening record on the unit.

Prohibited electronics

Electronics are what gets inside

At national labs, search is already a condition of entry. The finding that keeps recurring is prohibited electronic devices carried into security areas.

HEXWAVE screens personnel for phones and similar items, along with weapons and explosives, and shows the officer where on the body each item is.

How HEXWAVE answers it

What changes at the entrance

Find small electronics

Phones and similar items, on the body.

HEXWAVE detects weapons and other contraband, including liquids, powders, plastics, vapes, phones, and similar items.

Keep data inside the fence

Nothing leaves your network.

Screening data stays on the panel, with no cloud service. HEXWAVE does not store images or capture personal information.

Screen entry and exit

One portable system for either door.

HEXWAVE can be relocated by unlocking the wheels and rolling the panels to a new location. No tools and no technician are required.

Federal procurement

HEXWAVE can be purchased through a reseller or distributor that holds a GSA schedule contract, or through open market procurement. A SAFETY Act certification application is in process.

Fits the entrance you have

HEXWAVE stands free on wheels, with nothing bolted to the floor and no structural work. It installs in as little as 15 minutes, and each panel plugs into a standard outlet.

What it does not do

  • It screens people once pockets are emptied and hands are free. It does not screen bags or hand-carried items.
  • It shows where on the body something was flagged. Your officer identifies the item.
  • It runs indoors and in covered outdoor locations, between 42°F and 95°F. Outdoor deployment is restricted near designated radio astronomy and federal receiving sites.
