A New Paradigm in Fire Safety with Digital Twins and Artificial Intelligence

Detectium revolutionizes anomaly detection and fire prevention for industrial facilities by integrating electro-optical/thermal (EO/IR) sensors technology with digital twinning and machine learning algorithms.

The Solution

Our clients in the industrial and agricultural sectors benefit from our solution, utilizing it to proactively prevent fires while enabling the following features before, during, and after an incident:

Before incidents

  • Anomaly detection to prevent fire
  • Security integration allowing to evaluate real-time occupancy level
  • Fire propagation scenario modelling and simulation

During incident

  • Early fire detection
  • Accurate fire localization
  • Real time data feed available for civil defence responders “God’s eye view”
  • Real-time escape route selection (based on evolving threat” for every floor.

After incidents

  • Root cause identification
  • Damage assessment
  • Insurance claim verification

The Solution

We combine real-time 3D visualization with advanced sensors, and machine learning to create a digital twin solution for companies, which enables them to detect the fire much earlier than the conventional solutions.

B2C - Household Uses

For our non-industrial customers, we offer a simplified version of our solution that harnesses the capabilities of computer vision. This streamlined offering provides an accessible and user-friendly experience, catering to a wide range of customers with diverse needs. By leveraging computer vision technology, our simplified solution still delivers effective fire detection and safety features, tailored to non-industrial settings.

The Benefits of Detectium's Solution

Speed

Our solution incorporates a state-of-the-art highly sensitive IR detector, enabling the detection of small temperature anomalies and flames both indoors and outdoors. In addition, we enhance the system with active learning on an RGB sensor, significantly elevating visibility and accuracy levels. With a rapid detection time of under 9 seconds for small fires, we outperform current fire detection systems, ensuring quick and efficient fire detection.

Accuracy

Our cutting-edge thermal and RGB camera sensor technologies offers an expansive detection range, setting a new standard in fire detection capabilities. Our solution stands out by detecting flames of 0.01 square meters size from an impressive distance of 60 meters away. In comparison, traditional fire detection methods using smoke detectors typically have a limited range of approximately 10.5 meters, and heat detectors come in at around 7.5 meters.

Use of data

By harnessing the power of machine learning algorithms to analyze historical data collected at the factory over an extended period, specifically focusing on various fire hazard incidents our solution intelligently identifies and maps high-risk areas, enabling more effective and targeted risk mitigation strategies for the future. Additionally, we continuously retrain our machine learning model to ensure its adaptability and efficiency in managing all possible scenarios.
