Video Smoke Detection is a camera based fire detection system, which can be used in areas that traditionally have been challenging for fire safety professionals, such as lofty and voluminous areas. It works by using standard CCTV images which are analysed by image processing software, which looks for the particular 'pattern' that smoke produces. This is carried out by programming the software to look for the determined amount of smoke expected over a specified area within the camera's image. Once smoke has been detected it is able to alert the operator using 16 volt-free contacts, as well as giving a visual representation of the smoke detected on the system's monitor.
