Abstract

Devices, methods, and systems for a self-calibrating fire sensing device are described herein. One device includes an adjustable particle generator and a variable airflow generator configured to generate aerosol having a particular particle size and optical scatter properties at a controllable density level, a first transmitter light-emitting diode (LED) configured to emit a first light that passes through the aerosol, a second transmitter LED configured to emit a second light that passes through the aerosol, a photodiode configured to detect a scatter level of the first light that passes through the aerosol and detect a scatter level of the second light that passes through the aerosol, and a controller configured to calibrate a gain of the photodiode based on the detected scatter level of the first light, the detected scatter level of the second light, and the controllable aerosol density level.
