Regular changes in the activity of crowds and moving objects (vehicles, assembly line goods, etc.)

AVIOTEC offers scheduled sensitivity adjustments according to individual preferences. Up to three individual surveillance modes are available depending on the activity levels of the monitored areas and the time of the day.

Fires are harder to detect
Fires can spread quickly
Changing wind and weather conditions

Detecting fires in half-open spaces is difficult due to wind and weather effects. AVIOTEC provides outdoor fire detection near buildings where virtually no other detection technology is available. It enables the detection of smoke and flames even in windy conditions. The artificial intelligence-based algorithm reduces unwanted false alarms and optimizes detection reliability.

High fire load

Challenging areas with highly flammable goods and objects often combined with high ceilings i.e. in warehouses, paper mills, landfills, charging stations and hangars.
Fires can easily start based on overheating, electricity break etc.
Existing standard fire detection systems might not be fast enough.

AVIOTEC can detect flames and smoke within seconds directly at the source and trigger an alarm.

It provides a reliable detection before the fire spreads and thereby contributes to prevent harm and destruction.

Application areas

The fire detection camera AVIOTEC offers a lot of advantages in challenging environments.

Industry - Manufacturing

As an EHS officer I am responsible for the staff’s safety, to keep an eye on the production process and to be in charge of providing a dependable fire detection system for highly combustible goods. For an effective fire detection, we need to monitor both indoor and outdoor storage.

Being independent from ceiling height and the video image, AVIOTEC can monitor the production process. Installed in a housing, it is resistant to ambient influences and contributes to a very early detection preventing that fires can spread and become devastating.

Transportation - Airports & Railways

Due to high ceilings, we cannot monitor our hangar with traditional detection methods, as they cause many false alarms and do not react fast enough.

With the combination of flames and smoke recognition AVIOTEC goes beyond video smoke detection and enables users to identify a fire very early at the ground before it spreads.

Logistics – Warehouses

I need a fire detection system for my premises that is able to detect hazards in large open halls 24/7. That means it should also be reliable at night when no visible illumination is used.

Thanks to an integrated additional infrared illumination, the video-based fire detection camera monitors unlit, large warehouse areas while also delivering pin-sharp images even in the dark.

AVIOTEC algorithm technology - how does it work?

Video-based fire detection is based on the capability of various analysis techniques that examine live images for fires. Compared to infrared and thermal imaging cameras, AVIOTEC uses optical analyses to detect flames and smoke. The fire detection technology has grown in its variety of application and stability over the last few years thanks to the use of artificial intelligence.

Benefits

Artificial Intelligence

Pre-trained deep neuronal networks analyzing the video image directly and triggering an alarm in case of flames or smoke in the video image.
The improved algorithms, together with higher quality images and an integrated infrared illuminator can reliably distinguish within mere seconds between harmless occurrences and the start of a real fire - even in the harshest of environments.

Redundant alarm transmission

Delivers the possibility of a redundant alarm transmission. On top, during a network shutdown the camera relay transmit fire alarms or troubles.

Analytics inside

Choose AVIOTEC to have the data processing under your control. A local, camera-based image processing analyses video sequences for fires without giving data out of your application/network.

Highest quality

The coordination of camera, optics, algorithms and accessories gives best results also in harsh environments. Your profit: trust in constant performance also in changing environmental conditions and bad illumination.

24/7 fire detection

AVIOTEC 8000i IR provides a 24/7 fire detection. The integrated IR illuminator will be turned on if the light intensity in your application is getting too low.
