Detecting fire before it takes hold
Vision Intelligence's Sense AI Fire Detection platform is a purpose-built, AI-driven monitoring solution designed specifically for the challenging conditions of waste and recycling facilities.
Sense AI uses computer vision to detect early signatures of combustion — faint smoke and flame flicker — well before a fire establishes.
Waste facilities face a fire risk that traditional systems can't keep up with
• Significant environmental harm — toxic smoke, contaminated runoff, and air quality impacts on surrounding communities
• Regulatory investigation and potential licence risk
• Public liability exposure and reputational damage to council or operators
Continuous Edge Monitoring
Vision Intelligence's cameras with built-in AI computer vision scan the site continuously at 30 frames per second, looking for specific flicker patterns and motion signatures unique to fire and smoke. The integrated 4G IoT module connects on-the-edge processing with advanced cloud intelligence.
30 fps — Cameras scan the site 30 times per second for fire and smoke signatures
Engineered to detect a flame as small as 0.5m² and smoke plumes of 1.0m² at 30 metres distance, within 1–2 minutes of ignition
Temporal validation to rule out momentary interference and ensuring only genuine fire events generate alerts

Cloud-based AI Validation
Our proprietary platform combines smart camera hardware with multiple layers of cloud-based AI verification, cross-checking detections in real time to dramatically reduce false positives and deliver alerts your team can act on with confidence.
When a potential threat is identified, the system immediately engages Vision Intelligence's proprietary AI models. Each scene is analysed with contextual reasoning to distinguish real fires from situational noise — truck exhaust, dust, steam, and outdoor lighting changes that would trigger conventional systems.

Real-Time Alerts & 24/7 Monitoring
Real-time alerts are sent immediately to your nominated Point of Contact, with short video clips and event summaries. All validated events are automatically recorded with timestamp, camera location, and cropped image evidence.
Our in-house 24/7 ASIAL-accredited monitoring facility can respond to alerts and notify the relevant stakeholders for immediate response.
