Pano AI
Cameras with image recognition that detect smoke from starting wildfires and warn emergency services faster.
About
Pano places 360-degree cameras on high points and uses models to examine consecutive images for possible smoke plumes. Human analysts review each alert before it is passed to the fire service or land manager. The technology is used by governments and utility companies and can make fires visible early, but it is no guarantee that every fire will be found or that damage will be prevented.
AI factor
Image recognition monitors many camera feeds at once and flags possible smoke. An analyst rules out clouds, dust or steam, and the fire service decides what response is needed based on location, weather and terrain.
