Don't forget they're test data was bs too. I would guess if they want this could really not go to Evolves liking. I don't remember but did their test data claim they could find knives? I think it did, but it was a cooked up load of BS.



Testing revealed that "the [Evolv Express] system was incapable of detecting every knife," despite conducting tests at one of the highest sensitivity settings for the device. With a score of 1.3 out of 3.0 for this category, Evolv detected some knives at a rate of 0% with a 53% rate overall.

Results were so poor that evaluators said they "Recommend full-transparency to potential customers based on data collected." In a separate section of the report dedicated to evaluator feedback, multiple evaluators called knife detection "not consistent" and "unreliable".



In earlier drafts, specifications for knife testing read "knives with blades that ranged from under four inches to greater than six inches." After testing, this was changed to simply read "knives", as shown below:

The wording of this requirement raises questions, as it differs from past NCS4 language. While NCS4 requirements for object detection are typically quantitative (e.g. the system will detect X at a rate of Y% or greater) the language for Evolv has no quantitative
