Araani fire detection runs as an embedded analytics application on Axis cameras, continuously analyzing the video stream at the edge. Using advanced image processing algorithms, it identifies early fire indicators such as smoke, flames, or abnormal heat patterns (on thermometric cameras). By leveraging Axis’ high-quality imaging and on-board processing, detection is fast, reliable, and independent of external servers. Alerts are generated in real time and can be integrated with VMS, alarm systems, or other safety workflows.
Araani is committed to safeguarding people, property, and business continuity. These products ensure safety, minimize damage, and enhance operational efficiency.

Waste recycling facilities face significant fire safety challenges due to large spaces with combustible materials, dust, and flammable gases. Fire safety is essential to protect property, personnel, and the environment from improper handling of hazardous materials. Video Fire Recognition is ideal for harsh environments providing early detection to prevent catastrophes. Image quality monitoring ensures reliability, and Thermographic Fire Recognition offers 24/7 fire monitoring and detection in critical and unlit areas.
Safeguarding the workplace is crucial for ensuring people's safety and protecting assets and machinery from fire incidents, which can have significant financial impacts. Video Fire Recognition is ideal for these environments, providing an early warning when incidents occur and a visual verification to quickly identify the most effective intervention. The early detection will help avoiding (financial) catastrophe and/or avoid or minimize business interruption. The image quality monitoring makes the solution reliable in all circumstances.
For processes with critical heat generation or hot machinery, Thermographic Fire Recognition can offer a reliable anomaly monitoring or detection.
Public transport revolves around people-intensive areas where safety is paramount. The visual feedback of Video Fire Recognition is crucial for quickly identifying people in danger. Video Fire Recognition is particularly suited to these environments where traditional fire detectors are difficult to install. The early detection will help avoiding disaster and/or avoid or minimize public service interruption. For unlit areas, Thermographic Fire Recognition can offer 24/7 fire monitoring or detection.
Fire safety in heritage buildings is challenging due to their historical significance, unique designs, and materials like timber that are more susceptible to fire. The structural integrity of older buildings may be compromised, increasing the risk of collapse during a fire, as exemplified by the 2019 Notre Dame fire. Complex layouts with winding corridors and hidden spaces can impede evacuation and firefighting efforts. Retrofitting with traditional fire safety systems can be difficult. Video/Thermographic Fire Recognition integrates well with existing surveillance, offering early detection and helping to preserve valuable artifacts and the building's character.
