Abstract: A forest fire early-warning system based on infrared thermal imaging technology includes an infrared camera erected in a forest to capture infrared thermal images of an area being monitored. The camera includes a frontal temperature detection and alarm module for calculating the alarm temperature value by using a temperature monitoring mathematical model, and for transmitting an excessive temperature alarm signal when there are abnormalities in said area. A video conversion device connected to the infrared camera converts an infrared thermal image analog signal outputted by the camera into an infrared digital signal, and receives from the camera said alarm signal and converts same into a digital signal. A monitoring computer generates and transmits an infrared camera control signal, and processes the infrared digital signal to ascertain the location in the monitoring area that triggered the infrared camera alarm.

Abstract: A vehicular infrared night assistant driving system may include a vehicle rotation followup mechanism that rotates at an angle corresponding to a rotation of a wheel, a night vision infrared camera that rotates synchronously with the rotation of the vehicle rotation followup mechanism and captures infrared images of objects ahead of the vehicle in real time, a wheel sensing mechanism that detects in real time the rotation angles of the wheel and gear position of the vehicle, and an Electronic Control Unit connected respectively with the wheel sensing mechanism and the vehicle rotation followup mechanism to generate control signals for controlling the rotation of the vehicle rotation followup mechanism based on the information output from the wheel sensing mechanism. The infrared camera rotates synchronously with that of the wheel, eliminating the visual-field defect of the thermal imaging while the vehicle is changing direction, which improves security while driving at night.
