Abstract

Fire accidents are very frequently occurring disasters, which causes great loss. This gives rise to the urgent need to detect fire as fast as possible. The traditional fire detection system detects the fire using temperature sensors by sense the heat generated by the fire. This paper is a study of various Image processing techniques implemented to detect the fire. It is not possible to judge whether the region detected as fire is actually a fire, because the color of fire can range from red yellow to almost white. So it is difficult to detect the fire region only by a single feature color. This paper represents the study of the recent fire detection techniques and multiple experts used in each technique.
