Argus is a biometric camera designed for identity checks in secure offices, airports and checkpoints. Argus was created as a low cost alternative to more expensive biometric systems and staffed checkpoints. A camera with a long zoom lens is housed vertically inside a slim cylindrical pillar. Only a lightweight mirror moves to provide pan and tilt, which allows a compact size and fast motion. Argus can identify about 10 people per minute at a distance of 3 to 8 feet. The serious and minimal form hides the high speed movement.
