Claim Text:
1. A ballistic barrier curtain deployment system comprising: a barrier curtain storage container having an opening located along an upper portion of a curtain storage section; a set of ballistic barrier curtain deployment mechanism, each ballistic barrier curtain deployment mechanism in communication with a respective end of the barrier curtain storage container; each ballistic barrier curtain deployment mechanism comprising: a ballistic barrier curtain having a first vertical deploying attachment section and a second vertical deploying attachment section, the first vertical deploying attachment section in operable communication with a first extending curtain deployment element of a first barrier curtain deployment mechanism of the set of ballistic barrier curtain deployment mechanisms and a second vertical deploying attachment section in operable communication with a second extending curtain deployment element of a second barrier curtain deployment mechanism of the set of ballistic barrier curtain deployment mechanisms, wherein the attachment is provided by a plurality of attachment elements spatially arranged along the respective vertical deploying attachment section, wherein in operation, the activation controller directs deployment of the at least one deployment firing mechanism, the at least one deployment firing mechanism discharges a rapid deploying gas which drives the respective vertical deploying attachment section towards a distal end of the curtain deployment support column, thus deploying the ballistic barrier curtain.
