But, you know, on our properties, we want to maintain a safe environment, and we don\u2019t need guests bringing weapons on site. We really don\u2019t want that kind of surprise.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Las Vegas casinos are under pressure to ensure the safety of their guests following the attack last October. But Waltrip explained that, unlike airports or government buildings, casinos cannot impose inconvenient security measures on its customers, most of whom are there to cut loose and have a good time.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;People come to Vegas because it&#8217;s the fun capital of the world. They&#8217;re there to let loose, rock and roll, and do things they&#8217;d never do,&#8221; Waltrip said. &#8220;If they show up at their resort and they have to line up for metal detectors, or get wanded down, or walk through a gauntlet of security guards carrying rifles and pistols\u2014that&#8217;s not going make them feel comfortable. It&#8217;s going to ruin their experience.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>SEE ALSO:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/sig-releasing-limited-run-commercial-mhs-pistols\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"las-vegas-resort-testing-technology-can-secretly-detect-firearms\" title=\"Las Vegas Resort Testing Technology that Can Secretly Detect Firearms\">SIG Releasing Limited Run of Commercial MHS Pistols<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>The Patscan CMR works by emitting low-power pulses of electromagnetic radiation. When an object is hit with radiation, it resonates according to its shape and material composition. The system references PatriotOne\u2019s database of radiation signatures. And when it senses a signature that matches a gun, knife, or bomb, it signals the operator.<\/p>\n<p>PatriotOne assures its customers that the system can differentiate between a weapon and a cell phone or house keys. The system also provides a percentage rather than a simple yes or no\u2014when it thinks it detects a weapon.
