FlightVu SmokeVu
 
Using specialist software and high sensitivity monochrome video cameras, enhanced by infrared illuminators, the SmokeVu system detects smoke, faster and more reliably than conventional smoke detectors, and automatically alerts the flight deck. The speed and accuracy of the alarm means that the aircraft crew is alerted sooner and is therefore better placed to make decisions affecting passenger and cargo safety, as well as having a smaller and more controllable fire to deal with.
The cameras, and dedicated cockpit LCD monitor, can also be used to verify the situation should a conventional smoke alarm be triggered. Verifying an alarm as false can save thousands of dollars by avoiding a costly diversion.
