Monitoring the air for biological threats
Pilgrim develops biotechnology systems for defense and national security. Its Argus platform is designed to continuously sample the air, process genetic material and identify biological threats near the point of collection.
The intended settings include airports, transit hubs and military facilities, where automated monitoring could alert operators to an emerging hazard. The company combines hardware engineering with biological research and is preparing a wider rollout of its monitoring devices.
