Now that we are moving into real-world scenarios, we are striving to ensure that we have the mechanisms in place to provide for consistent identification and threat assessment. We are focusing all of our available resources, and are bringing on board additional team members, to help manage this significant and historic task. We are teaching PATSCAN to identify real-world potential threats, and our initial installations are being selected to maximize our ability to capture essential use-case and implementation data to ensure that our future customers have the very best counter-threat solution right out of the box. We are building a weapons identification platform that will learn to identify and share threat data system-wide. But today, we must first enable PATSCAN with the real-world building-blocks to teach and augment this machine-learning process. Strategic organizational leadership right now is the key to successfully deploying this all-new technology, and our results will validate our approach to this ongoing process.”
