In most sites the cameras record but nobody watches. When something happens, the search through hours of footage begins — after the fact. ARGUS reverses that: it watches the live feed for you and raises the alarm at the moment the incident occurs.
How it works
It connects to what you have
Reads from your existing recorder or cameras over the network. No camera replacement, no new cabling, no change to the installed system.
You draw the areas
A polygon for a restricted area, a line for a crossing — drawn with the mouse on the camera's own picture, in the browser. No coordinates, no config file.
You choose the cases
Every case explains itself on screen: what it watches for, how it is judged, where it is used, and how reliable it is. Schedules and recipients are set per rule.
It alarms during the incident
An instant alert on screen and by e-mail, with a picture and a video clip that document the moment, and a written explanation of why it fired.
Thirty-four cases in seven families
| Family | Examples |
|---|---|
| Personal safety | Person fallen · Fight · Drowning · Climbing a fence · Loitering · Motionless person · Running |
| Areas & boundaries | Zone intrusion · Approaching a hazard · Line crossing · Tailgating · Blocked fire exit · Unmanned guard post · Queue length |
| Crowds | A gathering forming · A sudden surge |
| Assets | Abandoned object · Object removed |
| Vehicles | Parked where it should not be · Speeding inside the site |
| Camera & scene | Camera tampering · Signal lost · Lights out · Movement in the scene |
| Optional packs | PPE: helmet, vest, boots · Fire and smoke · Smoking in a prohibited area |
The case nobody notices
The most valuable thing ARGUS watches for is not intrusion but what passes unnoticed: a fire exit blocked by a crate or a vehicle, or a camera that stopped sending pictures or had its lens covered. A dead camera means an unwatched area, not a quiet one — and it is normally discovered only at the moment the footage is needed.
What sets it apart
On existing hardware
Runs over the cameras and recorders already installed. The investment is in software, not in replacing the system.
Entirely on site
One device inside the building does all the analysis. No cloud, no external subscription and no internet — a hard requirement in industrial plants and sensitive sites.
It does not cry wolf
Objects that were already part of the scene — a parked car, a crate in a corner — are recognised as scenery. Only something that actually arrived or moved raises an alarm.
Evidence with every alarm
A picture and a clip that document the moment, plus a written explanation of why the alarm fired — so nobody has to search hours of recording to find out what happened.
Arabic and English
The whole console in both languages: screens, alerts, case names and their explanations, switched with one button.
No programming
Areas, rules, schedules and recipients are all set in the browser. No config files and no engineer revisit for every change.
Who it suits
- Factories and industrial sites — walkways, machinery areas, PPE, fire exits.
- Warehouses and distribution centres — restricted areas, loading docks, vehicle movement.
- Facility management and compounds — entrances, car parks, guard posts, gatherings.
- Construction sites — climbing, falls, PPE, vehicles where they should not be.
- Security-system integrators — a software layer over what you already install.
What we do not claim
Video analytics assists a security team; it does not replace one. Some cases are graded inside the product itself as an assistive signal rather than a verdict, and the PPE and fire packs need tuning against footage from your site before they can be relied on — a model trained on European construction sites will not perform the same in a plant in Cairo. We say this before the contract, not after.
