Industrial Safety
Instant Visual Fire Detection for Industry 5.0 Facilities
Overview
Industrial environments—warehouses, manufacturing units, cold storage, chemical plants, logistics hubs, server rooms, and high-rack storage facilities—carry significant fire risks. Traditional fire safety systems rely on heat or smoke particles reaching sensors, which can delay detection by crucial seconds or minutes, especially in tall racking systems, large open warehouses, high-ceiling production areas, ventilated environments that disperse smoke, and outdoor yards and terminals. Flagman's AI-Powered Fire & Smoke Detection System brings Industry 5.0 intelligence to industrial fire safety by using real-time video analytics to identify visual cues of fire and smoke instantly, long before conventional sensors can react. With multi-zone coverage, rapid alerts, and seamless integration with industrial alarms and control systems, Flagman enables faster response, early containment, and enhanced protection of life and assets.
The Challenge
Conventional heat and smoke detectors suffer from inherent limitations that can delay critical response times. Key issues include:
Key Challenges
- Delayed activation due to slow heat buildup
- Smoke rising slowly from the source in tall structures
- Ventilation or airflow dispersing smoke away from detectors
- Inability to monitor large open areas effectively
- False alarms caused by dust, humidity, or heat pockets
Flagman Solution
Flagman's AI analyses live camera feeds to detect flame patterns, smoke plumes, sudden flash ignition, heat shimmer patterns, and background disturbances indicative of fire origin. Once a threat is identified, the system activates loud local alarms, sends real-time alerts to supervisors, triggers fire panel integration (via relay/PLC), initiates notifications through mobile/desktop systems, and logs the event with video evidence. Flagman turns your entire facility into an intelligent, visually monitored fire-safe environment.
Key Features
- Early visual fire detection before heat reaches traditional sensors
- Virtual zone mapping for high-risk areas with independent sensitivity
- Multi-level audible and visual alarms with instant supervisor notifications
- PLC/SCADA/fire panel integration for automated responses
- Centralized dashboard for real-time multi-building monitoring
- Audit-ready logs with timestamped video evidence for compliance
Benefits
Much Faster Detection
Visual AI detects fire within seconds of visual occurrence—significantly faster than ceiling-mounted physical sensors that wait for heat or smoke to reach them.
Early Containment & Damage Reduction
Instant detection enables intervention before fire spreads, reducing damage to assets, minimizing downtime, and preventing catastrophic losses.
Wide-Area Coverage
Covers large, tall, and open industrial areas where traditional systems fail, including high-rack warehouses and outdoor yards.
Coordinated Emergency Response
Multi-level alerts and centralized dashboards ensure coordinated response across teams, facilities, and emergency services.
Integrated Evidence for Compliance
Comprehensive logs and video evidence support ISO, OSHA, insurance claims, and facility-level fire safety audits.
Enhanced Workforce Confidence
Future-ready visual fire protection layer improves operational readiness and reduces financial losses during incidents.
