Walt Disney World is testing the Evolv Express touchless weapon detection system in the Lime Garage at Disney Springs for potential use at the theme parks.
What’s Happening:
- Guests visiting Disney Springs have reported that Disney is testing out the Evolv Express system, a “First of its kind free-flow weapons-detection system.”
- People walk through between two points, similar to the anti-theft devices at the exit of shops.
- Each entry point can process more than 3,600 individuals per hour detecting firearms, IEDs, and other threats.
- They claim to be 10 times faster than traditional metal detectors and also save 70% of labor costs.
- The video above also says it can distinguish between personal items like phones and keys and true threats like a firearm.
- The program is able to alert personnel about the specific item the person has and also scans their face to make them easier to identify.
- More information can be found on Evolv Technology’s website.
