Advanced Security Screening & Weapons detection solutions

Evolv Express® is an AI-powered weapons detection system designed to screen people for concealed threats without requiring traditional stop-and-search processes. Unlike conventional metal detectors, Evolv Express is designed to support high-throughput screening, allowing people to walk through naturally while helping security teams identify potential weapons.

Schools, healthcare facilities, stadiums, workplaces, and public venues commonly use Evolv Express to improve safety while reducing bottlenecks and maintaining a positive visitor experience.

Evolv uses advanced sensors, AI-powered analytics, and intelligent screening technology to identify potential weapons and threats during entry screening. Instead of relying solely on metal detection, Evolv analyzes objects and threat signatures to help reduce unnecessary alarms and secondary screening.

When a potential concern is identified, security teams receive an alert image that helps pinpoint the location of the item, supporting faster and more informed response.

Evolv is designed to improve upon many limitations of traditional metal detectors by increasing throughput and reducing disruption.

Compared to traditional walk-through metal detectors, Evolv may help organizations:

• Screen people faster with less congestion
• Reduce unnecessary secondary screenings
• Improve visitor and student experience
• Support staffing efficiency at entry points
• Gain better visibility into potential threats

For schools, healthcare facilities, and high-traffic environments, Evolv can help create a more seamless screening process.

Yes. Evolv Express® is designed to help detect concealed weapons, including many firearms and knives. The system uses advanced sensor technology and AI-driven analytics to identify potential threats during screening and alert operators to areas of concern.

While no security technology guarantees 100% detection in every scenario, Evolv is designed to support a layered security strategy and improve threat visibility at entry points.

Yes. Avigilon’s cloud-enabled software allows secure video access via mobile devices, laptops, or browsers — perfect for administrators, security directors, and emergency personnel on the go.

Evolv Express® screens people for concealed weapons, while Evolv eXpedite™ is designed to screen bags and belongings.

Organizations often deploy the two solutions together as part of a layered security strategy:

Evolv Express®

• People screening
• Concealed weapons detection
• High-throughput entry

Evolv eXpedite™

• Backpack and bag screening
• Athletic events and visitor entry
• Schools, venues, and high-traffic environments

BAYCOM helps organizations determine the right deployment based on traffic flow, staffing, and safety goals.

Yes. Evolv is widely used in K-12 schools and higher education environments to improve campus safety while minimizing disruption to daily operations.

Schools often use Evolv to help address concerns such as:

• Morning congestion at entrances
• Athletic event screening
• Visitor management
• Staffing shortages
• Student and parent safety concerns

Because Evolv supports faster entry than traditional screening approaches, schools can improve safety while maintaining a welcoming environment and positive school culture.

Evolv Express® is designed for high-throughput screening and can screen large volumes of people quickly while maintaining traffic flow.

Actual throughput depends on entry layout, staffing, visitor behavior, and deployment configuration. BAYCOM works with organizations to evaluate traffic patterns and recommend the right screening strategy based on operational needs and peak entry times.

Yes. Evolv eXpedite™ is specifically designed to screen backpacks, bags, and belongings efficiently in high-traffic environments.

Schools, athletic venues, healthcare systems, and event spaces often use eXpedite to support:

• Backpack screening
• Visitor entry
• Athletic events and concerts
• School arrival and assemblies

Many organizations pair eXpedite™ with Evolv Express® for a more complete, layered screening strategy.

BAYCOM provides installation, training, 24/7 technical support, and ongoing service through our SystemGuard plans. We’re an Avigilon-certified partner, ensuring your system stays updated and optimized.

Yes. Evolv can integrate with broader security communication systems, including two-way radios, to help improve real-time response and coordination.

Through integrations and workflows, alerts from Evolv can be shared with security personnel and response teams, helping staff communicate more quickly when potential threats are identified.

As a Motorola Solutions Partner, BAYCOM helps organizations evaluate how Evolv screening technology can work alongside Motorola two-way radio systems to strengthen situational awareness and response.

Yes. Evolv is designed to integrate with broader security ecosystems, including Avigilon video security systems, to improve visibility and response.

When integrated, organizations can combine weapons detection alerts with video verification, helping security teams gain additional context around entry events and potential threats.

By connecting Evolv with Avigilon Unity Video or broader Motorola Solutions technologies, organizations can improve situational awareness and support faster, more informed decision-making.

The cost of Evolv security screening depends on factors such as entry points, traffic volume, deployment type, facility size, and whether organizations are implementing Express®, eXpedite™, or both.

For example, a single school entrance deployment may differ significantly from a district-wide rollout, healthcare facility, or stadium environment.

BAYCOM works with organizations to assess facility needs and recommend a screening strategy aligned with operational goals, staffing resources, and budget.

Deploying weapons detection technology successfully requires more than hardware—it requires thoughtful planning, workflow design, and ongoing support.

BAYCOM helps organizations evaluate:

• Entry points and traffic flow
• Staffing needs and operational challenges
• Visitor experience goals
• Integration opportunities with radios, video security, and access control

From deployment through long-term support, BAYCOM helps ensure Evolv technology fits your environment and works when you need it most.
