About
About Argus S5.4
SMP Robotics Argus S5.4 is an outdoor autonomous patrol robot introduced as a production platform for security and site-monitoring deployments. It uses NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX compute and is designed to host third-party security, analytics and artificial-intelligence software alongside the manufacturer's navigation and vehicle systems.
SMP announced that shipments of the S5.4 began in March 2026. The platform provides a mobile base for patrol payloads and customer-selected applications, so the exact sensing and security functions depend on the installed configuration. This profile records the production vehicle and its integration role without treating optional software as a physical capability of every unit.
