Xtract One Selected by Health PEI for Phased Rollout of Tech-Driven Security Systems Across Prince Edward Island

Xtract One Technologies has been selected by Health Prince Edward Island to deploy its AI-powered security screening systems across healthcare facilities throughout the province in a phased implementation. The technology uses artificial intelligence and advanced threat detection algorithms to screen for weapons and prohibited items without requiring individuals to remove personal belongings, enabling faster throughput compared to traditional metal detectors. Health PEI's decision follows growing concerns about workplace violence in healthcare settings and represents part of a broader trend toward implementing sophisticated security technologies in medical facilities. The Xtract One platform combines computer vision, machine learning, and sensor technology to automatically detect potential threats while reducing false positives that commonly plague conventional security screening methods. The system can differentiate between harmless metallic objects like keys or medical devices and actual weapons, allowing for more efficient patient and visitor flow while maintaining security protocols. The phased rollout will begin with high-traffic areas and emergency departments before expanding to other healthcare facilities across Prince Edward Island's integrated health system.
