Iranian Knowledge-Based Firm Presents Low-Cost Fire Extinguishing System
“We participated in this national event with a product called fire alarm monitoring system which enables remote fire management,” Davoud Akbari Bengar, a faculty member and head of the incubator center of Islamic Azad University's Savad Kouh branch and the managing director of the knowledge-based company, told ANA on the sidelines of Asr-e Omid event and exhibition in Karaj.
“The foreign model of this fire extinguishing product already existed in the country but due to sanctions it was no longer imported and it had a very high price,” he added.
"Now we are developing the product and its outstanding feature is that it has a reasonable price compared to foreign products," Akbari Bengar said.
The fourth edition of the national Asr-e Omid (age of hope) event in the specialized field of artificial intelligence (AI) and internet of things (IoT) was held at Islamic Azad University’s Karaj branch near Tehran on October 14-17.
In a relevant development in August, researchers at an Iranian knowledge-based company had also succeeded in designing a logistic system for round-the-clock monitoring of fire and detecting land changes by using satellite and drone images.
“One of the systems designed by our company monitors fire 24 hours a day in all parts of the country and uses satellite and drone images to identify the places where fire occur so that rescue teams can act to extinguish it,” Rouhollah Yazdan, a representative of the knowledge-based company, told ANA.
He underlined that the goal of designing the system for Tehran Fire Department was to assess the dynamic service range of the aid stations and apply the parameters affecting the service range of the stations in determining the geographical area covered by each of the stations with the goal of allocating these services optimally and smartly to all types of incidents that occur in the city, and as a result, reduce the time of emergency vehicles’ reaching the scene of the accident.
