The manufacturer of the walk through scanner, Evolv Express, states “It is the fastest weapons-screening system on the market, consistently screening 60 people every minute for firearms and other threats. That’s 3,600 people per hour, or 10X faster than a traditional checkpoint system.”

WDWNT.com shared that their reporter was at Disney Springs when Disney was testing the new system. “He was walked through the scanner, while having to put his camera and water bottle into a separate bin for security to check. He observed that many security officers were not pulling aside those with smaller bags or purses, but larger backpacks will probably still need to searched.”
