Athena Security will introduce two innovations at ISC West in Las Vegas on April 2, 2025. The new Telepresence Officer combines holographic technology and AI to increase security presence, and AR glasses provide real-time alerts to catch mistakes that busy or distracted officers might miss. These technologies ultimately create scalable, cost-effective, and non-invasive security systems that enhance safety in public spaces, schools, hospitals, and other critical environments.

“The future of scalable weapons detection is virtualization,” says co-founder and CTO of Athena Security, Chris Ciabarra. “By leveraging holographic technology with our security-focused AI solution, we can help organizations provide the level of weapons-detection security they need without adversely impacting their operating budget.”
Telepresence Security: How it Works
Utilizing holographic technology, Telepresence Security Officers are projected in entryways, hallways, lobbies, or auditoriums to provide a humanized, reassuring presence. The Telepresence Officers can respond to questions with pre-recorded messages or project a live security officer via hologram.
Enhancing Efficiency With Integrated AR Alert Glasses
Athena Security will also introduce its new OwlVision AR Alert Glasses to provide officers with instant, hands-free access to Athena’s weapons detection system alerts and or messaging. The integration of AR glasses technology will boost the attentiveness and efficiency of security officers by giving them visualized data and alerts right in their line of sight. Never miss another message.
The new augmented reality (AR) will serve as an extra layer of security that is fully integrated within Athena Security’s patented AI-powered control dashboard and X-ray technology that monitors both ferrous and non-ferrous items as part of a comprehensive concealed weapons detection system.
