Evolv Technologies Holdings, Inc. has announced that its AI-powered bag screening solution, Evolv eXpedite™, has successfully screened more than one million bags since its launch last year.
This achievement highlights the system's contribution to the security landscape, assisting in making environments safer.
Real-world performance insights
Evolv eXpedite is an autonomous and swift bag screener that employs AI alongside X-ray imaging to identify potential threats within bags, differentiating them from common items. The system functions without the need for manual interpretation. With this latest milestone, the accomplishment signifies Evolv eXpedite's effectiveness, as demonstrated by its operational data.
Initial deployment results, particularly in educational environments, present an alert rate of approximately 2%, indicating a promising balance in identifying threats while maintaining low false alarm rates. This supports security personnel in concentrating on genuine threats, thus ensuring a seamless movement for students, staff, and visitors.
Enhancing security checkpoints
This integration highlights Evolv's mission to centralise and streamline security operations
When combined, eXpedite and Evolv Express® form a cohesive security system, facilitating person and bag screening at a natural pace. Security personnel receive alerts through a unified tablet interface, with data accessible via the MyEvolv Portal. This integration highlights Evolv's mission to centralise and streamline security operations.
An example of the successful implementation of this technology is demonstrated in Spartanburg District Five Schools, where a combination of four eXpedite units and 29 Evolv Express systems operate across 14 schools, illustrating the system's impact on educational environments.
Commitment to safer experiences
"We are setting a new standard for proactive school safety, providing peace of mind for families, staff, and students while keeping the focus on learning," stated Ryan Cothran, Director of Safety and Emergency Services for Spartanburg District Five Schools. He emphasised that Evolv's solutions enhance security without disrupting daily school activities.
John Kedzierski, CEO of Evolv Technology, remarked, "We are driven to create safer experiences where visitors can enter a building efficiently. This latest milestone demonstrates Evolv's dedication to advancing security technology and achieving our ultimate goal: detecting threats with minimal impact on people’s lives." The milestone of screening over one million bags in its inaugural year underscores Evolv eXpedite's role in promoting security in various environments where people live, work, learn, and play.
Evolv Technologies Holdings, Inc. is proud to announce that its AI-based bag screening solution, Evolv eXpedite™, has now screened over one million bags since launching last year.
Evolv is a security technology company pioneering advanced solutions designed to create safer experiences. Evolv’s flagship product, Evolv Express®, has screened over 3B people worldwide as part of security operations for iconic venues, theme parks and professional sports stadiums as well as school and hospital systems.
Real-world performance data
Evolv eXpedite is an autonomous, high-speed bag screener that uses AI and X-ray imaging to detect potential threats in bags and distinguish them from many everyday items. The system works automatically without requiring a person to interpret the image. With over one million bags screened across Evolv’s customer base, this milestone is a powerful signal of eXpedite’s impact backed by real-world performance data.
Early deployment results of eXpedite show a ~2% alert rate in education settings, demonstrating strong promise in balancing detection with the goal of keeping false alarm rates low. This helps security teams focus on real threats while maintaining a smooth flow for students, staff, and visitors.
Efficient security checkpoint
Together, eXpedite and Express create a unified system, enabling people to walk through security at the pace of life. Express screens individuals while eXpedite screens bags, enabling a thorough and efficient security checkpoint. Security operators receive alerts from both systems through a single integrated tablet interface, and all available data is accessible through the MyEvolv Portal.
The cloud-connected integration of Express and eXpedite underscores the Company’s goal of creating centralised and efficient security operations. Spartanburg District Five Schools exemplifies the impact of Evolv’s integrated checkpoint, with four eXpedite units and 29 Evolv Express systems deployed across 14 schools.
Creating safer experiences
“We are setting a new standard for proactive school safety, providing peace of mind for families, staff, and students while keeping the focus on learning,” said Ryan Cothran, Director of Safety and Emergency Services for Spartanburg District Five Schools. “[Evolv] products add an important layer of security while being fast and innovative and without disrupting the flow of the school day, helping us keep students and staff safe.”
“We are driven to create safer experiences where visitors can enter a building efficiently. This latest milestone demonstrates Evolv’s dedication to advancing security technology and achieving our ultimate goal: detecting threats with minimal impact on people’s lives.” said John Kedzierski, CEO of Evolv Technology. With over one million bags screened in its first year, Evolv eXpedite’s cloud-connected checkpoint demonstrates a commitment to helping make places safer for people to live, work, learn, and play.
