Vegas Casino Deploys PATSCAN Platform to Detect Threats, Face Masks
LAS VEGAS NV December 19 2020 — Patriot One Technologies Inc. (TSX: PAT), announces the deployment of its PATSCAN multisensor threat detection platform at the Plaza Hotel & Casino.
The Plaza Hotel & Casino will begin deployment of the PATSCAN platform this quarter for the holiday season, offering increased security and safety for resort guests, staff and partners, according to an announcement.
In addition to the PATSCAN VRS component of the platform for the detection of visible and invisible threats, such as weapons, disturbances, elevated body temperature identification and facial mask detection, the Plaza will also deploy Patriot One’s new PATSCAN multisensor Gateway for concealed weapon detection.
“We’re excited to bring this new innovative, AI-driven threat detection technology to the Plaza,” says Jay Franken, general manager of the Plaza Hotel & Casino. “Popular for a classic Vegas experience and conveniently located at the top of the Fremont Street Experience, the Plaza Hotel & Casino typically welcomes thousands of guests a day. So, we are pleased to be the first in the downtown area to implement new physical and health security solutions to better protect our guests and staff.”
Patriot One’s PATSCAN platform is driven by artificial intelligence consisting of a network of hidden sensors that can detect concealed weapons (on-body or in-bag), concealed threat objects, weapons detection from afar (such as parking lots), public disturbances and fights through its algorithms, multiple sensors and AI video.
It also has health and safety threat detection modules; specifically thermal elevated body temperature, facial mask, social distancing and contact tracing detections.
“We’re excited to be working with the Plaza Resort & Casino in downtown Las Vegas,” says Dietmar Wennemer, president and COO for Patriot One. “Our business development team has been working with a number of Las Vegas resorts and casinos since setting up operations in the city back in December 2017. With the commercialization of our PATSCAN platform early this summer, and the re-opening of the resorts and casinos, we’re seeing an increase in interest for our solutions, including our elevated body temperature solution, which can assist in identifying potential viral threats. The Plaza has moved quickly, and we’ll begin deploying this quarter for the upcoming holiday season, including the Plaza’s New Year’s Eve fireworks celebration.”
