New Security Measures Tested at Disney Springs; Massive Bag Check Experience Improvements Possible When Theme Parks Reopen

    Disney is testing new security measures at Disney Springs today. While photos and video are strictly prohibited, the brand in use is Evolv Technology.

    Essentially, the technology allows for a completely contact-less bag check experience. When we visited earlier today, we didn’t have to put our bags through any x-ray machines and didn’t have to stop walking at all. The technology is very impressive from a guest experience standpoint, crating a frictionless entry experience. Again, photos and video were strictly prohibited and we abide by all rules at BlogMickey.com.

    Here is a photo of the device in use from the Evolv Technology website and a video of what they offer.

    As always, keep checking back with us here at BlogMickey.com for the latest Disney Parks news and photos. We’ll continue to bring you news and photos, where possible, through the Disney Parks closure due to Coronavirus (COVID-19) and will resume our normal coverage once the parks reopen to guests on July 11th!

    1. I don’t believe it uses radiation. It is a metal detector. It uses a magnetic field to detect metal objects; when the field is disturbed/bent, it means metal is present. Their website indicates that the system is an advanced metal detector using AI. There is no mention of an X-Ray system.

    2. Did the detector have the Evolv branding, Disney branding, or nothing? I would think if they ever went full-scale with it, they’d use some other image on it.
