ABSTRACT:
A fire detection system has a video sensor, a processor, and a database. The database has a statistical model representing the characteristics of a fire. The video sensor captures images, and sends the images to the processor. The processor computes statistics on the characteristics of the captured image, and compares it to the statistical model to determine if a fire is present in the captured image.
