| description | With the growing popularity of leisure activities such as camping and glamping, the incidence of fires at camping sites has increased. This study focuses on improving the effectiveness of photoelectric fire alarm devices by incorporating temperature and humidity data for early fire detection in confined spaces, such as campsites. This study proposes a novel multi-sensor fire alarm system that dynamically adjusts fire detection threshold values based on temperature and humidity data collected by unmanned automatic weather observation systems. The prototype, which was implemented using Raspberry Pi and multiple sensors, demonstrated approximately 20% faster fire detection speed than existing photoelectric fire alarm systems, as verified through experiments in a simulated camping environment. The proposed approach is expected to advance fire alarm systems, enabling faster and more accurate fire detection in diverse environments, particularly at campsites. |
