 A Stereovision System for Fire Characteristics EstimationAbstractThis paper presents a stereovision system for the
measurement of forest fire spread characteristics. Images
of the scene are captured by a pre-calibrated stereo
camera. A new approach is introduced in order to capture
a three dimensional flame structure and to estimate
important characteristics of this phenomenon like position
and rate of spread of the fire front, height, length,
inclination and geometry of the flame surface. Results
from indoor and outdoor experiments are presented. The
obtained results are promising and show the potential of
using the proposed system as a metrological tool for
modeling and monitoring real-life fires.KeywordsStereovision, segmentation, features detection and analysis, 3D modeling. To see the electronic version of the paper, pleaseClick Here
