SigniFire for Early Warning Fire and Smoke Detection

May 22, 2006

The fastest way to detect a fire is to spot it from a distance. Seeing fire is much faster than relying on smoke particles to physically reach detectors. SigniFire technology applies advanced, artificial intelligence to analyze live video images obtained by ordinary security surveillance cameras and identifies fire and smoke, while also alerting the guard. It is like having somebody watching these cameras 24/7, only better: SigniFire never loses its attention, never takes breaks, and never has 'bad days'. SigniFire enabled CCTV Surveillance system detects:

• Presence of flames within the field of view of the camera
• Reflected fire light when flames are obstructed
• Presence of pluming smoke clouds
• Presence of ambient smoke
• Intrusion

SigniFire is deployed on an advanced Digital Video Recorder (DVR) platform. Large capacity internal storage provides months of on-event digital video recordings with instant access to current and archived events from virtually anywhere over the network.
