FIRE DETECTION USING AI

Abstract

Fires are one of the biggest challenges in the world right now, due to the global warming that the planet is currently suffering from. We all know what fires are and what they are capable of causing great damage, whether to humans, animals, or other forms of life. Fires spreading increasingly around the world due to increasing global warming, it has become imperative to develop an intelligent system that detects fires early, using modern technology. Therefore, we used one of the artificial intelligence techniques, which is machine learning, which is one of the popular methods now. Professionals have done a lot of research, experiments, and coding software to detect fires using machine learning. Image processing is a type of processing in which the input image is transformed into another image as output with certain techniques applied to it. In this concept, we will create a fire detecting device using a USB or system camera and a application and apply the concepts of IoT and Image Processing to get real time fire detection results. When the device is switched on, it continuously monitors the area Infront of camera for fires. This is done by using HAAR Cascade Classifier Algorithm. Once detected the system could be hooked up with either fire extinguishers to make them work independently or it could just set an alarm or send a notification to the users mobile device via GSM. The after processing possibilities are endless.
