Efficient Visual Fire Detection Applied For Image

The specific challenge of this project is to build a computer controlled Robot that can move through a model floor plan structure of a house, find a lit candle and then extinguish it in the shortest time subject to a few operating factors [...]. This is meant to simulate the real-world operation of a Robot performing a fire protection function in an actual home. The candle represents a fire which has started in the home which the Robot must first find and then extinguish. In this project we use a combination of techniques to detect fire in video data. First, the algorithm locates regions of the video where there is movement. From these regions fire colored pixels are extracted using a perception. Lastly, we use dynamic texture analysis to confirm that these moving, fire-colored regions have the temporal and motion characteristics of fire.
