This fire sensor circuit exploits the temperature sensing property of an ordinary signal diode IN 34 to detect heat from fire. At the moment it senses heat, a loud alarm simulating that of Fire ...

At the heart of this overhead detector (fire alarm) circuit is a precision integrated temperature sensor type LM35 (IC1), which provides an accurately linear and directly proportional output in mV, ...

Two years ago, a circuit breaker in my home’s electrical panel randomly failed and shorted out—and it began to melt and smoke. I called emergency services, and according to the firefighters who ...

Researchers at the Chung-Ang University in Korea have developed a fire sensor that is powered by hydrovoltaics (HV) instead ...

At Washington University in St. Louis, computer scientists have navigated a robot safely through a simulated fire and spotted a simulated fire by seeking out heat, using wireless sensor networks that ...

Both my father and grandfather have been volunteer firefighters since before I was born. They instilled in me a healthy sense of fire safety, including monthly checks of our smoke detectors' batteries ...

Ting warns you of electrical problems in your home that can cause a fire if left unaddressed. With any luck, the only time you’ll need to think about Ting post-installation is when the subscription ...
