Abstract :
Based on examples of fire and intrusion detection systems, the author discusses current developments and trends for improving detection techniques in order to overcome the problems of deceptive alarms. Trends in the direction of improved aesthetics of danger detection systems, particularly the miniaturization of detectors and wireless transmission are also covered. Finally, the issues of reliability and product costs are addressed. Together, these topics represent the main directions towards an optimum danger detection system
