Evolv Express® Earned Excellent Scores Overall, and Top Scores in Specific Threat Object Detection Categories

Evolv Technology (NASDAQ: EVLV, “Evolv”), the global leader in weapons detection security screening, today announced the results of a rigorous exercise of its Evolv Express® artificial intelligence (AI) based weapons detection system conducted by the National Center for Spectator Sports Safety and Security (NCS4).

Criteria and focus areas for this exercise were developed in cooperation with the NCS4. Marketed capabilities, industry best practices, and security standards were used as the basis for determining exercise requirements. The exercise evaluation team consisted of professional sports, major events, and public assembly site representatives. The NCS4 exercise program follows principles espoused by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) validation programs meant to assist with objective and quantitative reviews of available commercial systems and solutions.

Evolv Express was exercised in October 2021 in a real-world environment at Lower.com Field, home of the Columbus, Ohio-based Columbus Crew major league soccer team. Operational capabilities were demonstrated by functional areas including: weapons vs personal items, walkthrough speed and crowd volume, operational performance and the analytics used to improve security and the crowd experience.

Evolv Express Identifies Critical Security Threats

NCS4 scores solutions on a scale of 0 to 3 based on the following criteria:

  • 3.0: Solution meets requirements and there are no recommendations for improvement.
  • 2.0: Solution meets requirements yet there are some recommendations for improvement.
  • 1.0: Solution partially meets requirements.
  • 0.0: Solution fails to meet requirements.

Overall, Evolv Express earned a score of 2.84. This score reflects that, on average, Evolv Express met the criteria established for this exercise. Additional key findings from NCS4’s exercise of Evolv Express include:
