Abstract
A fire detection system includes at least two fire detectors having a partially overlapping view of a fire. The at least two fire detectors are configured to acquire fire cluster information related to the fire. A validation and pairing module pairs fire clusters detected by the at least two fire detectors for the fire. The validation and pairing module is configured to validate the paired fire clusters according to a validation process that ensures that the pair corresponds to a fire. A triangulation module determines a three-dimensional fire location for the fire based on the fire cluster information related to the validated fire cluster pairs.
