The Argus robot is designed to detect people, cars, and other objects by using a smart thermal imaging surveillance system. The thermal imaging dual-spectrum camera that is placed on the robot is capable of working under the cover of darkness, and in conditions where there is condensate from fog and rain, with no external illumination. The combination of the robot’s mobility and long-range surveillance capability makes using Argus ideal for addressing security related challenges in critical areas on guarded premises.
The robot is equipped with an advanced intelligence video analytics system that allows detecting and tracking objects. Using deep learning algorithms permits reliably detecting a person at distances up to 200 meters in complete darkness. The movement of the robot as part of a group is controlled by risk assessment algorithms with elements of artificial intelligence. The Argus security robot allows substantially boosting the capabilities of a robot patrol group.
Thermal Observation & Surveillance Systems
Along with the dual-spectrum PTZ camera, the robot has 6 high-resolution cameras that provide continuous 360-degree surveillance in the immediate vicinity of the robot. These cameras allow controlling the space surrounding the robot, regardless of where the PTZ camera is directed at any given moment. Panoramic cameras that work in the visible spectrum have high sensitivity, but not enough to get a high-quality image in complete darkness.
Two robot models are produced that are distinguished by the presence of an on-board system for detecting people and human faces from the images received from panoramic cameras.
