Argus Air sensor barriers:
The new formula for an
efficient passenger flow.

The Future Principle.
Modern airports now delight travellers and visitors witha wide range of amenities. With cinemas, shopping malls,
ice skating rinks or butter­fly gardens, they are some­times
already the real destination for people.

Lars Rosenberger,
VBO Airports & Airlines dormakaba

But the prerequisites for the “airport experience” are asmooth passenger flow and more comfort – this applies
to business travellers as well as to families with children
and people with mobility impairments. Naturally, airport
operators and airlines place greater emphasis on maximum process efficiency. Nowadays, all aspects must be
combined to everyone's satisfaction.

Reality meets vision.
But what challenges do we have to face? Passenger
numbers are constantly rising, and security requirements
are becoming more and more demanding, as are peoples
expectations. Everyone in the industry knows the relevant
buzzwords by now: One ID, end-to-end passenger process,biometrics, immigration process or seamless travel, toname just the most important ones. In the end, however,it always boils down to a few things – to optimize theairport experience for everyone involved, to maximize all
security aspects and to standardize the airport
infrastructure wherever possible.

In 20 years, an average of
179 passengers per flight isprojected to be on board. In
2016 there were 111 passengers.

incredibly exciting. We, as the experts in theindustry, can make the difference here and arelooking forward to those great challenges.”

Time for more comfort and security. Time for a perfect solution.
dormakaba is a global player of the first hour. We have always striven
to improve the passenger process and are constantly developing our
products in close cooperation with our international customers. This is
how the idea of modularity was born, which ensures that our solutions
can be networked with a wide variety of systems and technicalconnections in the future. With the ability to accommodate a wide
range of biometric technologies, we also increase sustainability,
efficiency and security. Introducing one of the best, most flexible andeconomical gate system on the market: the new Argus Air generation.

Our new Argus Air gate solutions for airports
also ensure efficient and ergonomic passenger
flow thanks to biometric scanners. They cover
the most important touch points in thepassenger process from end to end:
Argus Air Security
Airport personnel are supported by oureGates for controlled access to the security
area - smoothly and efficiently. The biometricrecognition data securely links the individual
characteristics with the boarding pass or
ID document.
Argus Air Boarding
eGates for self-boarding support groundpersonnel with high speed and precision.
This also gives them more time for individual
support.
Argus Air Lounge
The automated access to the lounge relieves
the staff, who can thus look after theirguests individually and at a high level. The
bidirectionality enables a comfortableprocess when entering and leaving thelounge area.
Argus Air Border
Secure and efficient passport control ensuresclarity and supports border officials withbiometric face recognition with fast bordercontrol management.

Argus solutions for airports• 10" LCD colour display with integrated
biometric face recognition• Extremely low false acceptance andrejection rates thanks to the latest sensor
technology with new light grid technology.
• High-end sensor technology: effective
person and object detection by high frequency sensors and optimized algorithms• Anti-swapping function prevents people
from swapping with other people• Intuitive user guidance through animatedLED lighting• Multicolored, configurable ambient anddoor lighting• Slim and quiet drive unit
• Control unit of the current generation,
UL requirements fulfilled• Components and user interfaces arrangedon the basis of the specific ergonomic

control using biometric verification,
also prevents fraudulent use of travel
documents.
• Intuitive user-guidance for smoothprocedures• Staff support for better customer service

Great design speaks every language.
Airports are increasingly in the focus of their visitors interms of design language. Gate solutions must also fit
seamlessly into the overall picture. In its XEA design
language, the new Argus is based on a holistic approachand reflects our own demands for high quality, innovation,compatibility and aesthetics.
