This AI system will completely change your experience at sporting events

Have you ever gone to a sporting event and spent what seems like an eternity just trying to get in? Security technologies can slow lines down to a grinding halt, and they're not always effective – your necklace, keys, and belt may set the metal detector off, while weapons can still get through.

"Everyone who wore these boots were setting off when they were coming in," says Brandon Covert, vice president of information technology for the Cleveland Browns. The team has managed to overcome this problem with artificial intelligence, after adopting security screening technology from the company Evolv.
