Abstract
In this paper, the odor sensing system for early fire detection is demonstrated. The odor sensing system consists of a sensor-array and a computer. The sensor array consists of five different types of metal-oxide-semiconductor gas sensors. It was found that sensing a generation of hydrogen in an incomplete burning could be, effectively, utilized to detect early stage of fire. As an application of the proposed sensor system, the sensing system was implemented into a utility robot named "Banryu" (tmsuk, Inc.) which was commercially-available.
