Patriot One is a Canadian-based technology company that has developed an advanced concealed weapons detection system that delivers real-time warnings to keep potential attackers at bay and to keep the general public safe and secure. "Using radar and machine-learning algorithms that interpret the signal that comes back, every metallic object they're carrying will resonate with a very distinct frequency and the system has been trained to register the signature of different types of weapons," said Martin Cronin, CEO of Patriot One Technologies.

The cutting-edge technology created by Patriot One Technologies (OTCQB: PTOTF) (TSE: PAT.V) is available for use in airports, police stations and other government offices. It's also available for use in stadiums, concert halls, night clubs and shopping malls. Anywhere that large numbers of people gather has the potential for installation of Patriot One's system. Fortunately for any public or private entity that puts this concealed weapons detection system to work, there are no privacy law concerns "No image is retained. There are no privacy concerns whatsoever with respect to it. There's no data that's being retained, it's simply detecting items on an individual," said John Gillies, retired assistant director of CSIS, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service. Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino has implemented a trial of Patriot One's revolutionary concealed weapons detection technology in order to evaluate integration capabilities with existing in-house security systems. Having long been an iconic landmark, Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino is comprised of nearly 3,000 hotel rooms, including 305 suites located on 64 acres with a 74,000-square foot casino and 200,000 square foot convention center. The casino property is owned by Florida-based Westgate Resorts, the largest privately held company in Central Florida. Today, Westgate Resorts encompasses 28 resorts with more than 13,500 villas across the United States. Westgate's Chief Operating Officer Mark Waltrip said, "With this partnership, we are pleased to be moving ahead and look forward to deploying the product on-site and to integrating it with our existing security infrastructure. Hopefully this is the first of many deployments across our locations around the United States."
