Prevent Fire Disasters

viAct’s AI-driven Fire, Smoke & Wildfire Detection turns any CCTV into a real-time alert system, capable of catching the subtlest visual cues before disaster unfolds. Here’s where viAct’s AI truly makes a difference: ● Detects faint smoke trails or vapor plumes often mistaken for steam or dust ● Spots heat shimmers near flammable materials or active engines ● Captures minor ignition sparks from welding, friction, or mechanical faults ● Recognizes abnormal animal or bird behavior fleeing from threat zones ● Identifies glowing embers or scorched edges near perimeter fences ● Flags irregular flickers in ambient light as possible flame movement ● Tracks dry vegetation buildup near vents, wind corridors, or hot surfaces ● Notices workers overlooking small flare-ups due to pressure or fatigue From isolated energy plants to chemical storage yards, when it comes to fire, the gap between signal and catastrophe is only seconds — viAct’s AI makes sure those seconds save lives, not cost them.

AI-driven video analytics that turns existing CCTV into real-time fire, smoke and wildfire detection.
