Abstract: The invention provides a system for controlling flame to produce a music-reactive fire display. This system comprises a digital signal analyzer, electronically-controlled burner elements that allow variable control of fuel flow rate, an automatic ignition system, flame detection, and a means of communication between the signal analyzer and the burner elements.

Abstract: The invention provides systems and methods for standalone flame effects. Various aspects of the invention described herein may be applied to any of the particular applications set forth below or for any other types of fire displays. A flame effect may include a local fuel source, a burner configured to receive a flammable fuel from the fuel source, a local power source, and a wireless communication module in electrical communication with the local power source. The location of one or more flame effects may be automatically determined, and may be used in creating a desired fire display.

Abstract: The invention provides systems and methods for multi-stage burners. The burner may accept a variable input fuel stream, which may be divided into a plurality of output fuel streams. The fuel stream may be divided by a pressure-actuated flow separator that may distribute an increasing amount of fuel to a secondary flow stream as the input flow rate of the input fuel stream increases. One or more of the output streams may be conditioned to provide a desired flame characteristic. The multi-stage burners may be decorative burners, and may be used for theatrical displays or other fire displays.
