Welcome to D-Tec

D-Tec (part of the AD-Group) is acknowledged as the pioneer and world leader in the innovation of Video Smoke Detection (VSD) with over 12 years of experience in the field. Today D-Tec’s fire and smoke detection products are specified by name for worldwide applications.

VSD is based on the computer analysis of video images provided by standard CCTV cameras. D-Tec’s VSD automatically identifies the particular motion pattern of smoke and alerts the system operator to its presence in the shortest time possible. This enables a fast response to a potential fire, saving valuable time even in voluminous areas or where a high airflow may be present.

For the past two years D-Tec’s software engineers have been leveraging these unique abilities in video image identification and processing to create a range of highly flexible and efficient Video Content Analysis (VCA) programmes to operate on AD-Group embedded products. The first range of VCA products is now available, adding a whole new set of capabilities to previously passive CCTV security systems.
