And I tinker with that light every I feel like every week, and just not nothing works. But Nice to meet you guys. And everyone. My name is Kevin Rabinowitz. I know JJ Matthews is on the on the on the line as well. And I am the sales manager for the Midwest, I cover I think 10 states have a handful of people that, you know, are the account executives and region, JJ being one of them, that covers all of Ohio. I've been with the company for years, when you know, I'm sure a lot handful of you on this call have walked through a system before he probably know what the system might not know what the system is, you know, in your area, there's, you know, the tap Museum of Art, there's the Cleveland Browns, Cleveland Museum of Art, a couple a handful of school districts. But you know, we're definitely in the Columbus Crew as well. So we're definitely you know, around Ohio, but to give an idea, we've got about 750 systems around the Midwest as well. But my goal today is really just to give you an overview of the product. And just, you know, dive into a little bit of, you know, things you might not know, things you may know, and give you the opportunity to ask some questions. And, you know, Timucua knows me, JJ knows me, you asked me a question, I'm gonna give you the answer. If it's a question around knives, if it's a question around sensitivity, you know, I'm gonna give you the best answer I can give you. So just don't, don't be afraid to ask. So I know we've only got an hour, I want to try to get through as much as I can, in that time, so we can ask questions, I'm going to share my screen. And what I typically do is I just, you know, share my entire screen, you see, really my entire window, and I just jump around on different types of content to show. But the first one I'm going to show, it's a two and a half minute video. Now, I know we don't only have hospitals on here, I'm sure we have some different warehouse distribution centers, probably some schools. But I'm going to try to make this presentation as middle road as possible, try to not focus on one industry or the other. But if you have industry specific questions, please ask them, I will happily answer. But this is a video I'm going to show it gives you a very good overview of what Evolve is and what this product is. Now, to preface this video. Obviously, the Mayo Clinic is probably the the most famous hospital network in the country. We did not work with the Mayo Clinic to put this together, they put this together, they want to do it on their own, with their with none of evolves involvement, to kind of show you know, the current show their customers and their their guests and their employees, you know what kind of changes they've made at their hospital. And if you are a hospital or healthcare network, and you want to talk to Mayo Clinic, we can make that happen. You know, there's other local hospitals as well. But let me just jump into it. And I'll talk to you in about two minutes and 40 seconds. Can you hear the volume? Do it? No. Okay, I knew I forgot. I'm on teams. Sorry. It's okay. Rookie mistake.
The physical and psychological.
at Mayo Clinic, we understand that providing a safe welcoming environment is essential to the health and happiness of our patients, visitors and staff. And we're committed to ensuring the physical and psychological safety of everyone who passes through our doors. One important layer of security is the passive weapons detection system. This advanced technology helps keep weapons out of our hospitals and clinics without compromising the welcoming environment that patients and visitors expect from Mayo Clinic. This technology state of the art screening capabilities provide a more accurate and efficient screening process. And because there are no known health risks, people who are pregnant, have implanted medical devices, or use mobility devices can pass through the system safely. Here's how it works. Upon arrival, you'll be welcomed by a security ambassador who will lead you through the system. The screening process is efficient and timely. Unlike other security systems, simply walk through at a steady pace, keeping all your belongings with you. For most people, that's all there is to it. You'll pass through the system without being delayed. When an item of interest is detected, the system triggers an alert and identifies the items location. This lets the security Ambassador know what to focus on during the secondary screening. As the security Ambassador then informs the individual that an item of interest was detected and asks them to verify the item. This touchless secondary screening may include asking the individual to open a bag or jacket to produce the item that triggered the alert weapons including firearms, knives, pepper spray, tasers and other dangerous items are prohibited on all Mayo Clinic properties. If a weapon is found, the individual will be asked to take it back to their car or place of residence, except in emergency or urgent medical situations. In these cases, the weapon will be stored on Mayo Clinic's campus and may be retrieved upon departure. It's important to note that every person, including all Mayo clinic staff will be required to pass through the detection system when using certain points of entry. That's a brief look at the passive detection system. We hope you'll agree it's an excellent tool to help us achieve Mayo Clinic's goal of providing a safe and welcoming environment for patients, visitors and staff.
So we're done there. And I'm gonna jump into really the presentation side of of this call awesome. So you know, very quick Evolve is the name of the company the name of the product, it's called the Evolve Express. Our main mission is really to make the world a safer place to live, work, learn and play. So what does that mean we want to provide you know, and from a from a live perspective, we want to provide cities and and different towns the ability to screen people at the pace of life when they're coming downtown for either you know, Fourth of July firework shows are sent or Christmas tree lightings and provide an environment where we're really not interrupting their day to day. We provide this product at where people work, whether it's a, you know, a hospital, as you know, people will go to work there or distribution center. We've got there is, you know, a large car manufacturer and Dayton that does utilize the VAV system. That's their national brand. And we provide this product where people learn so the K 12 space, we screened about 400,000 students on a daily basis. Yes, 400,000. We are in over I think it is 800 buildings and 500 districts. So we have a lot of systems that are deployed across the country from Columbus City Schools who has 19 of them to Charlotte Mecklenburg who has 250 of them as well as several different types of schools you know, whether it's higher education or even you know, elementary and middle school and also where people play where we go when we're not working. We're having fun whether it's you know, a Six Flags Theme Park or a Disney any Disney entry down in Florida I had a friend text me yesterday. He says Everywhere I look, there's an evolved system at Disney. That's that's cool. But we also whether it's a Cleveland Browns, Columbus Crew, the museum's the iconic venues. If you walk if you go into New York or DC and go and do most of the museum's Evolve is there. So found in 2013, we've screened over a billion people going through the system, it's probably upwards towards like 1.2 billion. Now if I were to guess, to give you an idea, when I started, I had a jacket on similar to this that I'm wearing. And on the shoulder it said it had this little like this, this line that said over 1 million plus, meaning we've screened over a million people sweet. Well now we do about 2.4 to 2.5 million people on a daily basis. went public in 2021. At the time when I joined I was joined an employee like 35. Now we're over really over 300 We've had the same CEO, the same leadership team, great investors, great advisors, but I want to point towards Mike Ellenbogen in the middle. One of our founders, he's become a good friend of mine. He started the company revealed technology which some of you might know. But it's do you know those giant cylindrical X ray machines that you put checked? Essentially you check bags going underneath airplanes are going through? Well, he created that company. He basically created with the mind of okay, well if I can screen people, I mean, sorry if I could screen bags this quick. I could probably do with people. So he basically took it so that took his knowledge from there and put it into what Evolve is doing. So over a billion visitors screen and several types of environments, whether it's industrial workplaces, we have 40 sports facilities right now. We will be doing the NFL Draft we'll be doing the NBA All Star game. And we've done a fair amount of Superbowl ticketed venues whether it's you know, performing arts centers or sorry, whether it's museums, iconic structures, aquariums, theme parks every six flags. I mentioned Disney and several other theme parks around the country. And I know in Ohio where I'm sure a lot of you are six flags and Cedar Fair just just merged. So I know Cedar Fair up in Sandusky is a is a happening place where we're working on getting in there. Lots of performing arts centers where we kind of cut our teeth. The one in Dayton, Dayton live, they're a customer of ours that a customer about three years hotels casinos was you know, believe it you could I'm so surprised that evolved was really the first kind of metal detector weapons detection system that made its way into hotels, casinos after you know all the issues that they have throughout the country. But we've got about 354 systems throughout those casinos as well. As school campuses, which I talked about, we you know, hospitals not on here, but houses of worship is and we do a lot of work with house of worship. What are we doing? We're trying to detect weapons like these, we're trying to look for firearms, primarily firearms, doing an extremely good job finding knives, which I'll share in a little bit. I have personally been around for taking ar 15 data, people's bags broken down air fifteens with six different you know, magazines walking into a hospital. I've also been around taking submachine guns out of people's bags, I hate to say it, but there's, there are new stories out there. If you type and evolve and submachine gun, you'll you'll see it, we do an extremely good job at finding things with barrels and slides. Whether it's an AR 15, or a or as 38 special or Ruger LCP, we do an extremely good job using our algorithms and our detection capability to find those shapes and sizes. And, and provide that intelligence to you. And I'll show what that looks like in a second. But I want to show you what else we find. Now, there's a lot of stuff in the news about evolved, doesn't detect knives doesn't detect certain weapons. Now, we can, you know, we can't find every knife, not every knife is created equally. You know, how much damage is that nail clipper up here gonna do that? That this one, you know, this, this, this knife down here is gonna do it's not you know, it's not going to be the same. Excuse me, this was from one weekend at a hospital in Chicago. So, you know, when you walk through the system, it identifies there's there's that there's okay, there's metal, okay, there's a mass amount of metal, oh, there's the shape of this metal, I'm going to alert on this bag. And you're gonna probably find something whether it's you know, Taser guns, which are plastic mace, which is plastic, but it's that secondary search to keep people on their toes, which is how a lot of these are are found their protection paradox, you know, we're all used to metal detectors, we're all used to hand ones which are minimally useful. A lot of alarm fatigue goes on there. We want to provide that great security and great experience, which is very difficult to do. We also identify that staffing, is that a breaking point, we know there's a shortage, there's training challenges, it's, you know, there's a huge shortage right now, post COVID. But we want to provide a product that can do either, hopefully more with less. And that's the Evolve Express. We are detecting weapons and ignoring harmless items, we are completely touched through touch lists walk through without the vesting bags, and bucket contents. The only item that I recommend when you divest if this is your industry, or computers, so schools, and maybe front office staff at a warehouse or distribution center, all you need to do is really take the computer out of your bag and put it in your hand and when you walk through the system. If it alerts it'll put a red bounding box around your body of exactly where that you know, alert is whether it's on the bag or whether it's on the computer, you know it it separates the big metal from the bag. So that's just what we want to you know, we would like for plate people to deal with just hold it in their hand and walk through the system.
We are guard friendly system with image data alarms, you can see different types of locations that these weapons are being placed whether it's in my midsection, up on my upper torso, you know on my ankle, multiple alerts on my underarm and in my hand. And then of course my underarm. You know this is what a dual alert would look like. You walk through the system. You heard the red there. You heard the audible and then immediately put the red bounding box around multiple places on my body. There's two different offerings that we offer with evolve Express it's the dual lane and the single lane the dual lane we can screen up to 4000 people per hour now That's about all that marketing would let us say I've seen as far as many as six or 7000 people in our going into concerts, we recommend two security officers per lane. Now, it's not necessary for every location to do to two security officers per lane, a lot of hospitals, I'll show you in a little bit. Using the single lane system, a lot of hospitals use one person per lane. To save you the time, it's about 4.2 FTEs per single lane. But we can still screen up to 2000 people per hour. So very fast, very efficient, very easy to operate. And I'm going to give you a little bit of overview of what's in the system. So this is an older picture. Now right now, this pic, this system is 100% wireless, with the with the exception of the power supply. So unlike some other products out there, we still utilize the power supply mostly because we don't want the battery's dying. And then you're out the for someone to shift manager forgot to charge them and now you don't have a machine to screen with. So the only line the only power, the only core that we have is a power supply 110 volt 120 volt just traditional power. within the system itself, there's a 4g LTE router that's embedded that basically allows our our engineers back in Boston to see into it in case there's any health updates that need to be done. But it's also has a encrypted Wi Fi connection between the tablet and the system for a complete wireless experience, that tablet can be you know, we recommended being 15 feet away from the screening area. But really, you know, we've got a few hospitals, I've got schools that use these tablets, you know, 100 feet away through a couple of doors. So you know, it does show that the signal does travel, you can also integrate this directly into your DMS system, your whether it's a existing, you know, DMS investment that you've made we can integrate into Motorola's are sorry, a visual on Jenna Tex milestones exact we also have an open API. So if you're a school, we have an integration being built right now with rafter as well as all the VMAs your access control. So it's very, you know, easy to, you know, introduce into your your security infrastructure. And the last thing I want to say is, this is 100% off your network. So we don't touch your network at all. We also don't take any PII. So it's HIPAA compliant, there's no personal information identifiers, none of that it is completely off your network, we don't need to talk to it, but we will talk to it, if you want us to, if you want us to do a, you know, a cybersecurity analysis, you know, we've got all of that we're working on on our sock to compliance right now. But you know, we can provide you all that information as well. So sorry.
So, we are looking for weapons and not looking for like innocuous benign items. So we're looking primarily for the barrel, the slide the density of the metal, the shape, we're not looking for the 97% polymer frame or a Glock, we're looking for really the slide and the barrel. And there are instances where we've had people try to sneak guns into facilities completely disassembled. And with the the ability of the algorithms and the detection, we have been able to pick up slides or barrels and multiple occasions, we're not looking for phones, keys, wallets, belts, shoes, jewelry, etc, we're not going to go off on people's pacemakers or heart monitors we are completely safe is usually the extremely low frequency radio waves, which is the equivalent of those walk through, you know, loss prevention towers that you walk through going out of Walmart or Target. So it's safe, we've got documentation that we can provide for you. And we can also provide you if you go when you if you do go with evolve, you know different signs with QR codes that lead you to the health and safety of the system. So going back to that paradox, the security and experience we'd like to put evolve in the middle there. One thing that we do we were very, very serious about is when we come out and you know, we go through the you know, the overview the qualification of the system, and then you say hey, you know, I like it, I want a site visit to make sure that this fits and the concept of operations is what it works to what I want it to work for. So we will come out, we will send ng our engineers, we will work with the IPS team to work with, you know their engineers, and then we will walk your site and say yeah, this system can go here. We recommend this type of system so you can have a double lane, a single lane with the big tower on the left or the big tower on the right So the transmitter tab on the left or the transmitter on the right, whatever, you know, whatever looks best for you more of an aesthetic. So we'll take pictures measurements, we have an augmented reality system that we can place in the location to give you an idea of what it would look like in your space. And we'll draw up a concept of operations for you a really good PowerPoint that explains the what you know what goes on. So, just going over a couple things, we're the only product out there that does targeted searches, we over time, our system gets smarter and smarter. With different updates, we update the system about four times a year, every year, we have one large update typically going from like, for example, we're on seven Dotto right now. We're gonna get to eight Dotto at later this year, but we're gonna get to like 8.1 dot two or something like that. So we have different updates, which you know, which may give you a better algorithm detection capabilities, integrations within other other externals integrate the integration to other external nav security features. So we provide all that that's all including the costs, we also do. We also, I mentioned the integration with security management, whether it's a DNS access control, mass notification, student tracking, we have the ability. After this presentation, I'm gonna jump into a very quick overview of the insights analytics dashboard, which we think is a very, very great value add, it's no additional costs, but it's basically be giving you all the ability to see your systems and how many people are walking through on a daily basis, weekly, based hourly, every five minutes, you know, all that data is important. And it's key to a lot of decision makers. And we'll provide that for you as well. You can customize your middle panels. So we have we work with a company out of Arizona, that you know, can customize them very quick. They're affordable, whether you're a school or a hospital or a sports facility, you know, it's very easy to do this. So this is a little outdated about a year old. But it just you know, it's there's a point I'm saying to this coincidentally, these two are in Ohio, too. Yes.
Kevin, is there supposed to be something on our screens to go along with this? Yes. Sorry. I did. I was paying attention to what your talk you were saying and then I was like I think they're I think we need a visual
on that. Did you guys see this one? Yeah. Okay, my bad sorry, I should have piped in there so it's okay I pressed something. Okay, so real quick this is what was the slide I was talking about doing the you can have the big tower on the left or the right this was about going through a site survey and drawing up concept of operations you know, targeted searches were the only one that does the targeted searches with the actual image at the line with the with the tablet, but wireless tablet that shows exact locations of where weapons or threats might be over time we get smarter and smarter with more we take all the metadata for people that are walking through all two and a half million per day we married together to try to lower your your false alarm rate and then also the integration within the security management systems a walk through the insights and a little bit but you can customize your middle panels that look like here Six Flags actually sold their rights or sold one years Fright Fest to Hershey or actually sorry Mars candy which is all their systems had something like this. This is a you know what if some customers say this top one if you want to talk to them Altman hospital up in Akron, Ohio, I believe. You know, quick update 10 hours in vivo 99 one firearm one taser. I mean, 10 hours in they found 21 weapons. This one is going to blow your mind if you're Ohio based. This is southern Ohio Medical Center down in Portsmouth. This they've had a system essentially for they've had two systems now for about a year and a half. And at the beginning, they were finding 15 to 20 guns a month. And their EDS in their small ladies, guns knives. The second person that walked in we were doing this go live was was a gun. The fourth person that walked in, came with a 99 inch buck knife. So, you know, and what are these systems look like in real environments? This is Oxford Middle School, sorry, Oxford High School and Michigan. The story about them obviously, we know what happened. There was a shooting up there in November of about I think 2022 They we actually gifted them systems to you know, give them the, you know, just just the want to come back to school feel like you know, they're going to be safe. We gifted them to systems, and we act they actually love them so much. They bought three more for their middle schools. On the left is a vestibule at Swedish covenant Hospital in Chicago with a system sitting in there every person walks in there Their second person that walked in had a firearm. So you know, they've had it for two and a half, three years, they find about anywhere between, I think 250 to 300 firearms on an on a yearly basis. As a company, we find about 500 firearms a day, and about 180,000 firearms on it on a yearly basis. What we look like this was at a very large manufacturing distribution center. You know, what our single line looks like, this was a hospital in Indiana. And this down here was a school as a school in Columbus. So what the, the process is, is we come out and do site surveys, we drop kind of documentation, we go through quotes, agreements, and delivery and deployments now, you know, we're doing we're doing a deployment with with IPS. I think we did some, I think we did an install this week. But you know, we sent out our engineer or account executive, we will send out, anybody needed to train to make sure that you guys are up and going and you know, you have you're putting your best foot forward. We don't shy away from providing resources. Now, some things I want to show is on show pad, we will provide your organization, everything you need to get on boarded. Whether it's visitor experience assets, whether you're onboarding for healthcare, you know, it's everything social media, health and safety, hospital staff, patient and visitor experience, we have everything already built out. Same thing for school onboarding, we have just about as much built out for there. So if you need policies, procedures, talk tracks, we've got, you know, we've got all of that from current hospitals, schools, performing arts centers, museums, let us help you to make this as easy of a process as possible. The last thing I want to show is a little bit about our insights, I'm hoping this doesn't refresh, I'm happy to think it will. But this is, there it is, it's refreshing. So let me just run this through with you. So this is where. Second, this is our dashboard, you jump into here and we will, you'll see in a little bit. I'm going to search for a school. And in Wisconsin that I've used in the past, so Racine Unified School District, essentially, they had an incident that happened, they wanted, they ended up jumping the gun and buying metal detectors. They bought, I think 14 metal detectors to put up their school. And let's just say it took them about 45 minutes to an hour to clear people on a daily basis. So they said there's got to be a better way they found evolve, evolve, kind of came in and saved the day. So just to give you an idea, over the course of like, you know, a couple of days, we're able to break down, you're able to see on a very high scale that, you know, this the case high school, they had 7600 visitors 6% alarm rate 94% Clear rate that's with computers, with backpacks, with binders with everything, you know, we provided an extremely efficient entry process for them. So they can go through you know, on a daily basis. I think it's more like 1800 If I'm not mistaken. Yeah, so 1600 on a 6% alarm rate, where the students are coming in, in a matter of 30 minutes, they're all coming through the system in school, not in the snow, not in the rain. Very, very quick, very, very efficient. And that you know, that goes down, you know, really everywhere. These are some of their middle schools 2% alarm rate on a sensitivity D which is very sensitive, you know, we're gonna find, you know, a lot of firearms, you know, we're gonna end it and we're gonna find a lot of knives as well. And then, here's another really cool one, the alarm rate and timeline. I'm just going to show you, you know, another school district. I think I'm going to show you Rockford schools up in Chicago. So I'm really just going to go into here, type in Rockford and apply it and then I'm going to imagine this being your, your facility, you can come in here, you can change the dates. So I'm going to go to just you know, the 23rd through the 25th. And you can see on a day by day basis, how many students came through the system what the alarm rate was, if you want to just to pick on one school, or you know that's a one one of your warehouse manufacturing distribution centers. You can go down here to location, you can click Apply, and you can say I really curious, you know, on the on the 20 fourth, you know how many people came through between the certain hours of seven to nine. And you can really dive into this pretty deep. So you can go there, click the hour, and you can see 707 came in this hour 1007 came in through that hour, if I were to guess it's probably between 745 and eight o'clock. And this is most of the other people coming in. And you can even dumb this down by that. So and just to, you know, go one step further, you can apply just the eight o'clock hour. And you're curious how fast these people are really coming in students and a five minute increment. Granted, they have a couple, they have a few systems 556 over the course of of a five minute increment. So this is all at your fingertips, all these reports can be generated automatically. And, and we are happy to run through this with you if this is something that you're more interested in. That's my presentation. For right now. I know I missed some things. I'm going to stop sharing, I guess. And we'll go from there. If anyone has any questions I gave, I think third 25 minutes. Any questions people have?
Yeah. Are there any questions out there? You can hop on your mic and ask drop them in the chat? Text me email me.
I have a question here. Chris, here at HHS government. Oh, looks like I might be talking to somebody here.
I don't think so. i He's Steve's talking to someone not on
the the hospital here. Right, Pat? Do you have you guys installed these on government installations and be able to meet all their stringent requirements for adding a system?
The answer is yes, we have we have installed with a lot of whether it's you know, VA hospitals, I know the VA in Columbus has it. And we've installed with other, you know, public hospitals around different cities. So the answer is yes, there are some, you know, very specific, you know, things that they need checked and marked off. But we have the ability to do that.
Yeah, the big question was in the cellular router, sometimes they get a little especially at right, Pat here, you know that that's something they're kind of crazy about? Yeah.
You mean, you mean the ability to get cell signal or you mean the bill, like the fact
that it has its own independent source of a using that spectrum? In okay. And I don't know if that if you run into as an issue or not?
Yeah, no, great question. So I know there's, there's, I think, two frequencies or spectrums that you can run off of right, fiber one. God, what JH someone helped me out. I've done this once. But we built a separate frequency for the system to run off of, and that's my answer. We built that guy. Who do we do it for? I think we did it for SSM hospitals. is who we initially did that for they said, Yeah, we have too many things running on this frequency. We don't want another product on it, especially one so detrimental to safety. So we built that we built a second one. Okay,
cool. All right, that answers my questions. Pretty awesome.
Um, I'll just say a couple of things. One thing, a couple things I missed. From a sensitivity standpoint, the vol system has the ability to have seven sensitivity settings ABCD EFG. Now, what that means is a and b, you're looking at large guns, you're looking at Perimeter detection, you're looking at at minimum at minimal alarm rates looking for large items. So where we've used like a be setting is at the perimeter of the Super Bowl. So we wanted to make sure nobody coming into this, this enclosed area had a pressure cooker bomb or an AR 15. But you know, maybe they had you know, a 38 and they're gonna get that caught at the next at the next checkpoint. So the CSET stivity We don't do a lot on that's a Glock 19 only, and like bigger firearms. D you get into the comp, the compact sub compacts. We do uh, you know, I would say 90, I would say 40 or 50% of our customers run on D and the other 45 or 50% run on E and maybe you're very rare. You know, 5% might be on on f is you're getting your micros your 38 specials, your 380s regrew LCPs but with the higher sensitivity, the more false alarms. So that's just one thing to remember. And we can provide you an overview of really everything that's going to go off on those sensitivities as you're getting into, like, very novel novel items like the one shot Derringers. Like there's joke guns, and then you know, smaller knives. But we have the ability to find just just about everything. But you might not want to go that sensitive due to the secondary searches that might have to come from it. I say just about, I will never say all of them.
Have a question here? That was texted to me? Is there a way for the system? If you've got people entering your facility? Is there a way for it to act as almost like a not an access control, but recognizing that so and so is entered the building? That way they have to check in or thing or is it separate? Yeah, I think, I think
yeah, to integrate, that would be an integration into kind of your visitor management system. We have the ability to do that with the open API. We, I know, some states are pretty strict on on facial recognition, there is the ability to integrate a camera into the system, and you can easily put a facial rec, you know, kind of analytic on there. So the answer is yes, it's possible. There are places that do it. I know there's a large, large technology company that's interested that's doing that right now, it's gonna be that's working on doing that. But we have a fair amount of customers that do integrate into access control and into visitor management. Especially in the healthcare space, that's big in the healthcare space.
Are there any other questions out there? And you can hop on your mic? Drop them in the chat? Let me know.
Hey, Taylor, I thought I'd just jump on here real quick. First off, my name is Tim McHugh. Really thank JJ and Kevin for joining us today and walking us through this information. And all of you who are customers, or contacts that joined us here as well today. So really appreciate it. You know, Kevin just mentioned, access control a visitor management. And we look at this as an added layer to protecting your facility. And it complements those sorts of things, right? Access control video. It's a manned system, right? It requires security personnel to be actively engaged with it. It certainly complements any company policies that you may have training that you may do within, this just adds another layer of kind of security and protection to your facility. There's even a little more background, Kevin, and I probably been talking for a couple years now. And this was spurred on by a school shooting, our interest got piqued. Unfortunately, that's far too common in our society these days. And there was a school shooting. We had an internal discussion. And someone said to me, you know, the schools are going to come to us looking for technology, how can we help them be safer than what what what are we doing in terms of gunshot detection. And so we have, we've explored gunshot detection systems, there's some very sophisticated systems out there. When we explore them and got to the point of presenting the customers, we never really found much interest in moving forward. And that may be a you know, the value of that type of decision point. We decided to pivot and kind of reframe and refocus this conversation and say, Look, why don't we talk about finding a technology partner that can help us on the front end, help us with prevention, and that started a search for weapons detection systems. And it was real quick evolve, kind of just shot to the top of that list with their technology and their various resources, that systems out in the field that we're working. So we think about talking to our customers here, and we talked about hey, if you know if you're concerned about this sort of thing in in the workplace if you're concerned about violence in the workplace, let's talk about technology and applying technology for the prevention of it and you know, involves a great system that helps helps with that and kind of you know, adds that added layer or dimension to every facility. So just a little little framing it out why why and how we got discussion going on with with Kevin and crew here.
Thanks, Sam. There Any other thoughts out there from anyone I know it was a lot of information. We'll definitely be sending some follow up stuff that you can read link to the recording if you need to go back and refer. You can share it with coworkers well All right, I guess if there are no oops, sorry, even myself, I guess if there are no more questions out there, then we can go ahead and wrap up a little early. Again, thank you everyone for your time. We do appreciate it. If you have further questions, need some specific stuff answered, relevant to the situation at your facility, please let me know. Let your IPS account rep now and we will be more than happy to get something coordinated with the Evolve team a demo. A one on one talking session will get you everything you need to make you feel good about this technology. So with that, I want to thank again think everyone and wish you a good rest of your day. Thank you. Bye.
Thanks, Taylor. Thanks, guys. Appreciate it. Thank you
