Argus listens
to the ground.

Argus is a set of small sealed sensors you place by hand and leave. Each one hears and feels what moves across your site, works out what it was, and passes the alert node to node to your operator. No cloud and no gateway.

01 / How Argus works

Place it once and it keeps listening.

  1. Place

    Nodes go in by hand, with no trenching, mains, mast or cable for anyone to cut.

  2. Listen

    Each node picks up sound through the air and vibration through the ground. Footsteps, engines and machinery each leave a different signature.

  3. Decide

    The node works out what it heard on the spot, and an unknown sound wakes the nodes around it to help identify it. Real threats become alerts, and wind, rain and wildlife are logged.

  4. Relay

    Alerts hop from node to node until they reach the operator. Any node can act as the hub, so there's no single box to take out.

02 / Operator view

What the operator sees.

Your operator gets one clear alert with its evidence. Pick a scenario below and watch how the field handles it.

03 / The mesh

Every node can be the hub.

Argus has no master box. Any node can take the hub role, and the field moves it automatically. Knock out a node and the alerts route around it.

  • 01

    No gateway to jam

    Alerts hop between nodes, so no single radio link holds the site together.

  • 02

    No mast to cut

    There's nothing tall or wired for anyone to spot from the road.

  • 03

    Grows with the site

    Add nodes along a fence, a track or a ditch and they join the field on their own.

05 / Hardware

Hardware we design ourselves.

We design and engineer the electronics, firmware and housing ourselves, in Lund, and choose every component for where it is made and who controls it.

Into your tools

Alerts arrive in the tools your operators already use.
