Introduction of VFDS
™
VFDS™ (Video Fire Detection System) is an intelligent video system which is able to
recognize fire and smoke through analyzing video signals and send alarm accordingly.
VFDS™ server takes CCTV cameras or other compatible devices video images and
analyzes whether there is smoke or fire, triggering visual or aural alarm. The system
functions as VFDS™ Console structure hereafter. VFDS™ server is capable of processing
8-channel videos at the same time to perform early stage fire and smoke detection. In
comparison with traditional fire detectors, the VFDS™ provides many extra advantages:
1.
Early stage alarm
VFDS™ may prevents serious damage and millions of lost by recognizing fire and
smoke at an early stage. VFDS™ detects both flame and smoke, covering different
types of fire formations no matter whether the flame or smoke starts first.
2.
Wide coverage
The detection coverage equals to the visual footprint of the selected camera.
3.
Cost efficient
One VFDS can take place of many conventional detectors with its wide coverage.
Whenever the hazard is monitored by a camera, it’s under detection.
4.
Easy operation and maintenance
Easy operate GUI (graphic user interface) in main screen. As long as the video is
clear, it doesn’t require maintenance.
5.
In time alarm verification - verify the alarm immediately through videos.
