COMPUTER VISION BASED FIRE DETECTION SOFTWARE

Conventional point smoke and fire detectors typically detect the presence of certain particles generated by smoke and fire by ionisation or photometry. Conventional sensors only aim to sense particles. An important weakness of point detectors is that they are distance limited and fail in open or large spaces. The strength of using video in fire detection is the ability to serve large and open spaces.

Below are some example screen-shots and videos of our fire, flame and smoke detection software.

The fire and smoke detection system works in real-time by analyzing the video data captured by an ordinary surveillance camera and a frame grabber.

The software can be used in CCTV systems.

Computational complexity of the software is low.

The software is developed by Prof. A. Enis Cetin who was an Associate Editor of IEEE Transactions on Image Processing between 1999 and 2003, and now he is an Associate Editor of Journal of Applied Signal Processing.
Please contact him, if you are interested in this software.
