Abstract
A fire monitoring system 1 having at least a first and a second monitoring camera 4, 5 for outputting monitoring images 4.a; 5.1, wherein the viewing fields 6, 7 of the first and the second monitoring camera 4, 5 overlap in a common monitoring region 8, having an evaluation device 9 for identifying a fire 2, 3 in the monitoring images 4.1, 5.1 is constructed, wherein the evaluation device 9 is constructed to output positional information of the fire 2, 3 by way of evaluating the monitoring images 4.a, 5.1.
Claims17
A fire monitoring system (1) comprising:
- a first and a second monitoring camera (4, 5) for outputting monitoring images (4.a;
- 5.1), wherein the viewing fields (6, 7) of the first and the second monitoring camera (4, 5) overlap in a common monitoring region (8) that extends over a length (L) on a floor or a wall, an evaluation device (9) for identifying a fire (2, 3) in the monitoring images (4.1, 5.1) wherein the evaluation device (9) is constructed to output positional information for the fire (2, 3) by way of evaluating the monitoring images (4.a, 5.1) using stereo analysis;
- and wherein a predetermined masking module (11) is constructed to mask partial regions (14, 15) in the common monitoring region (8) and thus exclude them from the evaluation.
