The new Argus Air Solution from dormakaba combines legacy methods of credentialing and facial recognition to ensure maximum security allowing for smooth and effective passenger flow in mass-transit applications. It ensures reliable access control into restricted areas. The new eGates from dormakaba support passengers and staff throughout the entire process, from the security checkpoint to the airline boarding bridge. The ergonomic design of the system guides users intuitively through and is able to distinguish between rolling luggage and unauthorized tailgating. Argus Air is also flexible, document readers of all common brands on the market can be easily installed and used allowing a seamless integration to existing credentialing systems. The new design is aesthetically pleasing and customizable, allowing for best in class branding opportunities. The system’s modularity allows for better use of space at the most commonly congested areas within a facility.
“Having various models that fit where passenger pain points most often occur allows dormakaba to offer a variety of logical solutions where previous generations of eGate technology wouldn’t be considered,” says Derek Sarmas, Senior Manager - Airport Solutions AS Americas. “There are eGates for boarding pass control (Argus Air Security), lounge access (Argus Air Lounge) and self-boarding (Argus Air Boarding). We create three different systems because the passenger process at airports is complex and demanding of security, safety, efficiency and convenience”.
As a global player from the very beginning, dormakaba has always strived to improve the passenger process and develop it further together with its international customers. With Argus Air, dormakaba is launching a flexible, economical eGate system that perfectly meets the requirements of airports and airlines alike.
