Early Warning forBiological Threats

Overview

ARGUS is an autonomous system for detecting pathogens in near-real time

Legacy biosurveillance requires costly sample collection and transport to centralized labs, where testing can take days and miss emerging threats outside a predefined list.
ARGUS collects airborne pathogens, screens for known and novel threats, and analyzes results on-device, combining the entire detection process in one portable, automated system.
