  • Abstract
    Fire detection using video offers a novel way of detecting fire in spaces where conventional smoke-based fire detectors tend to exhibit high false alarm behavior. This paper explores a simple algorithm for flame detection based on the use of a modified histogram back projection algorithm in YCbCr colour space.
