World-class entertainment destination takes a
deep dive on AI-based weapons detection security technology and
transforms guest experience from wet blanket to no sweat
Evolv Technology (NASDAQ: EVLV), the leader in AI-based weapons
detection security screening, today announced that Elitch Gardens
Theme & Water Park has transformed its safety and security
protocols and vastly improved the guest experience by installing
Evolv Express® systems.
Located in the heart of Denver, Elitch Gardens is Colorado’s
only world-class combination theme and water park. Each year, it
welcomes more nearly one million guests to enjoy thrilling roller
coasters, pint-sized adventures, a splashin’ water park, and tons
of special events. To provide a fun and safe guest experience,
Elitch Gardens had been relying on the now outdated and
time-consuming process of using magnetometers to screen each guest
for weapons upon arrival.
Prior to installing Evolv Express, guests often waited in long
lines before being admitted to the park. Along with impacting the
guest experience, this process fatigued the security team. To help
ensure safety throughout the park, Elitch Gardens augmented its
staff by hiring an outside security company.
After researching new ways to streamline guest entry without
compromising safety, Elitch Gardens selected Evolv Express. Built
with powerful sensor technology and artificial intelligence, Evolv
Express offers a touchless experience and instantly distinguishes
weapons from personal items. The systems are able to screen
approximately 4,000 people per hour, operate 10x faster than a
metal detector and can identify the location of a potential
weapon.
“Evolv Express has completely changed our guest’s first
impression, and the system has already paid for itself because we
no longer have to rely on additional outside security staff at our
front gate,” said Rachel Shapiro, director of operations and human
resources, Elitch Gardens Theme & Water Park. “Evolv is the
first, critical step in our ability to create a great theme park
experience the minute guests arrive. Our security employees are
happier at the entrance, able to spend more time greeting guests,
and properly dispersed throughout the park.”
Prior to installing Evolv Express, the metal detectors used at
Elitch Gardens were often trigged by cell phones and keys, further
extending the time required for screening guests. Now, using Evolv
Express, Elitch Gardens guests are not delayed as frequently by
false alarms, and they do not have to break their stride entering
the park.
“We are committed to partnering with customers such as theme
parks to help create weapons-free zones that positively contribute
to the guest experience. At Elitch Gardens, they went from having
10 long lines at the entrance to a free-flowing, single entry path
without backed up lines, even with the rush of thousands of guests
at the daily opening,” said Peter George, CEO of Evolv Technology.
“Based on our successful experiences at well-known theme parks
throughout the country, including Six Flags and Dollywood, we are
proud of the way we are able to provide Elitch Gardens with a
sophisticated AI-based technology that is simple to set up and use
while creating safer environments for guests.”
