Fire Safety in High-rise buildings.
If you are responsible for Fire safety or are a resident of a high-rise, multi-occupancy property you will be only too aware of the increased awareness of the need for enhanced fire detection and evacuation processes.
The former ‘stay put’ guidance is now regarded as unsafe and has been replaced by a ‘simultaneous evacuation’ strategy.
Many properties have deployed a waking watch service; this is a fire protection service and involves marshals patrolling to lookout for potential signs of a fire. They are also responsible for raising the alarm.
These services are costing property owners and residents thousands of pounds. A Waking Watch service can be replaced by a wireless Fire Detection System. This meets all the required standards and is quickly and easily installed. The total one-off cost of a Fire Detection System can be less than 10 weeks of a Waking Watch service.
The Avigilon H4 Thermal Elevated Temperature Detection camera is embedded with edge-based analytics to detect faces, measure the temperature of the inner canthus region, and notify operators if individuals exhibit indications of elevated body temperature. This security-grade thermal camera provides a low friction, contactless alternative to traditional screening methods. It enables high-throughput pre-screening of people to detect indications of elevated body temperature to keep facilities and people safe.
