Real-time Fire Detection using Image and Video Processing

There has been a rise in the frequency of fire-related calamities all over the globe, which leads to the need for an efficient fire detection system to avoid high losses or fatalities. This paper focuses on real-time fire detection techniques through image and video processing. In particular, this paper is aimed at a color detection approach that uses HSV and YCbCr color models for detecting only fire pixels along with the implementation of fire movement detection approach by comparing consecutive frames from the live feed. Overall, the study contributes to advancing fire detection methodology, highlighting the potential of image processing methods in real-time fire detection systems.
