Argus thermal imaging cameras (TICs) are the result of over thirty years intensive design and research. Our cameras lead the way in handheld thermal imaging technology for police, security forces, fire fighters and search and rescue teams.
Or new range of security cameras include the:
TT Type = Thermal torch cameras for officer patrol and first responder applications
P Type = Monocular cameras for covert surveillance applications
F Type = High sensitivity cameras for specialist search applications
Our TICs have an abundance of features designed to aid law enforcers and security personnel. Suspects can be caught quicker using less man power and most importantly thermal imaging keeps the good guys safe and one step ahead of the criminal. Argus TICs are not as expensive as you might think; we have designed them to be affordable and effective tools for you to use in the fight against crime, and without loosing the outstanding quality Argus are known for.
