Abstract
A method and apparatus for fire prevention in electronic equipment utilizes infrared imaging technology to monitor a substantial region of an enclosure within the electronic equipment. For example, a shelf within a computer cabinet may have a lens and thermal sensor array placed within to detect changes in temperature. A processor interprets the data from the thermal sensor array to determine whether to send an alert to an operator and/or to shut down a power supply.
