Fire detection technology

Fire detection technology uses sensors to identify signs of fire early, such as smoke, heat, or flames. Smoke detectors pick up particles in the air from a fire, while heat detectors sense rapid increases in temperature. Some systems combine multiple sensors for faster, more accurate detection. Advanced fire detection may also include video analysis or chemical sensors for specialized environments. Once a fire is detected, these systems activate alarms and safety protocols, helping to prevent damage and save lives by providing early warning and enabling quick response.
